Arms and Armour of Knights and Landsknechts in the Netherlands Army Museum, Jan Piet Puype & Harm Stevens: http://www.amazon.com/Armour-Knights-Landskne...=pd_sim_b1



Quote:
This highly illustrated volume draws on the collection of the Royal Army Museum in Delft, the biggest and most important collection of medieval and renaissance arms and armor in the Netherlands, to offer a detailed account of the weapons and armor of fighting men of the period. Full of color images of the weapons and armor in the collection, and rich in detailed description, the book presents a unique picture of the outfitting of knights and soldiers in medieval and renaissance warfare.

Nifty! Too bad this book wasn't yet on the shelves when I visited the museum last July.

If anyone wants a taste of the collection, here are some photos I took while I was there.
