Daggers
Knives
Sabers
Cutlasses
The origin of the weapon
The weapons of the age of wood
The Copper Age of weapons
The Iron Age of weapons
The sword in ancient Egypt
The sword in ancient Greece
And more
Nearly three hundred line drawings enhance Burton’s richly detailed text. Any reader of history or student of weaponry will find this book a fascinating, highly enjoyable read.
