Hi Tim and all,
Sorry for the delay. It is not a sword porn book (I too like that name) however, it does contain actual porn, well, handles with erotic images.
This may be a surprise to those only casually aquantied with Islamic art. Although not primarily not a book on historic and social developments, social issues ect. of swords, it is far from just pictures. It is a book of substance (in many ways). There is more text than pictures (rare for a sword book). Hope this helps in your decision.

Thank you Ann you make it sound quite ground breaking. I will keep an eye out for a copy. This may take a little while as today I was very naughty and spent money on a throwing knife. I am sure I will get it, like in a years time as I did with Elgoods Hindu arms. Which I have to say I was really more than a little disappointed with.

PS, I like pictures but not of the same old thing and there kind.

This book is being either sold or advertised on your website .
I'd consider this a conflict of interest and I believe this post( seeing as how it's your second plug for the book) belongs in the SWAP Forum .

Is the book being sold on YOUR website, Thai-Kickboxing? Is Rick correct?

I see, you have a link to the Legat site on your site. I assume you would make no profit off the sale of the book. If so, please advise and repost in Swap.

Sounds like you know you way around porn; do you also dress like a pimp?

I apologize: mistook you for a "troll" well-known around here.
By the way, since you like this book so much and even call it "historical", why wouldn't you tell us what did you like there, are there any particular parts that made especially deep impression on you, or something you would disagree with?
Go ahead, share your views with the rest of us!

Exclamation

I do not know for sure what it is about this book that brings out the worst in people on this forum, though I have my suspicions that it has nothing to do with the book iteself. I am closing this thread because it has been corrupted. Members are welcome to start new threads to discuss the book objectively, but the moment I see anyone else launch a personal attack, jibe or flame about this, the offenders may rest with confidence that they will no longer need to use any of their own or their computer's memory storing the password to post on these forums, as I'll have used some of the server's memory to ban them.
