Sobre este item
London: Hertford House, 1962. Vol. I. liii (1), 1 - 239 pp. Vol. II. iii, 240 - 714 pp. Two volumes. Octavo. Original green wrappers. Gilt lettering on the spines. Previous owner's name on the front free end papers. Otherwise, bright and clean copies. Each volume is liberally illustrated with 104 black and white plates. The authour of these volumes was Sir James Mann. In the mid-twentieth century, he was a prominent member of the art world, with a specialty in the study of armor. In these books, he includes detailed chapters on swords, daggers, staff weapons, powder flasks, pistols, guns and rifles and more, with information about weaponry in specific countries also expanded on (such as Germany and Italy). The plates are detailed and meticulous and provide the reader with a particularly curated experience of European weapons and armor, including swords and other equipment related to historically significant European figures. 1962
