Elgood's books ???

As a woman of my acquaintance once said "I do not buy books, I already have one" :-)

I am still waiting for the two Elgood's books. They must be about North Indian weapons. Time to learn something beside Rawson.

Ariel,
The books are on the Jaipur armory and the other on the Jodhpur armory.
With a bit of luck one should be for sale late this year or early next year, and the other one should be published next year - as far as I have heard.

The last I have heard is, that the Jaipur book should be published in January - next year, I think :-).
The Jodhput book should be published later in 2015 - I think/hope.
I have no details about how/from where to get the books so far.

Any news on the horizon?

So far I have not heard anything, but it must be due soon, as it should have been out before Christmas.
I will let you know when I hear something.

This post prompted me to visit a well known internet book site and I see that Robert Elgood has published HINDU ARMS AND RITUAL----ARMS AND ARMOUR FROM INDIA 1400-1865. Published in 2004.
I am assuming that this is not the books discussed here??

No it is not.
The Jaypore book should have been on the street months ago, and the Jodhput book shoul follow later.
