Islamic arms and armor book?

H. R. Robinson's "Oriental Armour", while somewhat dated, is still excellent value for money.

I also found a nice Polish book, which also has captions in English, on Indo-Persian arms and Armour.

If you have a bit of cash to spare, get David Alexander's book on the Khalili Collection Arms and armour.

If you have lots and lots of cash, get Robert Elgood's "Islamic Arms and Armour". BTW this book is VERY expensive and I don't own it.
