Arms & Armor of the Samurai: The History of Weaponry in Ancient Japan



"A great book with lots of detail about the construction and history of all types of armour and weapons in Japan from prehistoric to modern times. It includes lots of clear pictures and diagrams. If you want to make authentic Japanese armour, this book will be a great help. -P.W."
