WOW only the third day in August and we have it togther for the HIghlight Item!
This month we are offering #959Sword in Hand by Ewart Oakeshott for a special price. We hope this will expand a few libraries of the sword out there and it is a great book to introduce new people to the history of the sword.
We hope all are having a good summer and if you are in Lansing this weekend be sure to say Hi.
Best
Craig

Great book that I already have,.   But for everybody who doesn't I highly recommend it. Bought it from A & A at the same time I was ordering something else. ( Might as well save shipping charges by buying more than one thing at a time.  )
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!

I also have this book. It is truly a one-of-a-kind work, just like its late author. It's also on my reading list. This book is VERY highly recommended.

I have called to take advantage of this offer and am looking forward to receiving my new book. Hopefully it will have a few pictures I have not seen. It does have a large enhanced picture of one of my favorite swords- the Shaftesbury Sword.

I found Sword in Hand to be both an educational and entertaining read. I highly recommend this book.
