The Rapier and the Small-Sword 1460-1820

As a heads up to everyone, AVB Norman's "The Rapier and the Small-Sword 1460-1820" was just reissued by Ken Trotman Books. This is a very important, and scarce, work on these swords. The cheapest I've seen an original is $250.

Trotman is offering it for GBP 35 here: https://kentrotman.co.uk/new/the-rap...ord-1460-1820/

Mine just arrived today.

It is a facsimile copy, so my only negative comment is that you lose some of the contrast on the photos.

FWIW, I have no financial interest in this. I just figure that the more it sells, the more reissues we'll see.
