Mycket gott skick. Skyddsomslag i mycket gott skick. A brilliant, highly illustrated survey of the real story of knights, their weapons and the shivalrous wars and battle they fought. Also, it looks at the history of knights in action, in war and in the hazardous melees. Throughout the medieval period the devastating charging power of mounted knights dominated the military affairs of Europe. Weapons and armour were evolving constantly, and a varity of styles developed. This development is stunningly illustrated, from the early days of chain mail and crude helmets to the vastly expansive and beautifully elaborate suits of full plate armour of the 15th and 16th centuries. A comprehensive glossary of terms is provided, and an appendix gives details of the construction of armour. Text in English.
