While this includes Western European information, perhaps its greatest value is when it focuses on non-European weaponry and armor. The author was a "professional hobbyist" who collected examples from Africa, Asia (especially Japan) and the Americas, so most of the information covers those areas. While slightly out-dated in its writing style and perspective, this is one of the most comprehensive single sources to cover all these regions. Mankind has always felt the urge to decorate his weapons. It sets the individual apart so that their feats of valor or powers are identifiable to others as it occurs. A great many of the terms describing weapons and their use are described here.
