LibraryThing Review
Procura do Utilizador - Imshi - LibraryThingI love this book; it's excellent for anyone wanting to know about medieval arms and armor. It goes through various types of weapons and armor chronologically, so you can see how things developed over time, and the pictures are very nice too. Sadly, I believe it's currently out of print.
