This book
Warriors of the Himalayas: Rediscovering the Arms and Armor of Tibet accompanied the limited duration special exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. With this publication, Don LaRocca and the Met team really have set the high bar for content and design of ethnographic arms & armour publications...
... and the hardback is now on sale at less than half of the original price ($35) directly from the Metropolitan.
