Review: Learned so much. Excellent book. - Great book. I’ve been interested in swords my entire life. I learned more about swords and their design in the first 30 pages then in my entire life. As a note some knowledge just makes you know things that you wish you didn’t like Utred’s sword Dragon’s Breath from the Last Kingdom would not have been around in the ninth century—the hilt is all wrong thought the sword blade is correct. It is simply historically incorrect.
Review: An Astoundingly Comprehensive Book - THis book covers so much from past to recent research on swords, to how to build all the different kinds, to swords in movies and how they were used. Its full of bright colorful pictures detailing everything you could possibly want to know about swords.
