Book Synopsis Arms and Armour of the English Civil Wars by : David Blackmore
Book excerpt: This book uses the magnificent collections of arms and armour from the Royal Armouries, augmented by the unique Civil War Armoury at Littlecote House, and others, to show the weapons and armours used by the Englishmen who fought for King or Parliament during the Civil War. The arms and armour of each different type of soldier is described in detail, and their use and effectiveness in battle is fully discussed, with many fascinating quotations from contemporary manuals and memoirs.
