Reference: THE ARMS OF GREECE
... AND HER BALKAN NEIGHBOURS IN THE OTTOMAN PERIOD, by Robert Elgood
Just got it and it's brilliant! A superb reference book on Ottoman weapons, lavishly illustrated, that should be part of every serious collector's library. Last edited by mariusgmioc; 12th July 2016 at 05:05 PM. |

LOL!!! Indeed But here I gotta agree too. The works of Robert Elgood are an absolute must in any arms library. For me, his footnotes alone are a joy. These are 'browsing' books, beyond just being sound references. The years of research he spent on this book are easily reflected in this volume, and if I recall, there was a big event in Athens as this was officially released. |
