Are there any good English language books on Caucasian arms and armor?

Well said! Clearly we are fortunate to have you here as many of us with interest in these areas to assist with the esoterica that invariably needs interpretation. Kirill Rivkin has provided us with valuable insights into these areas which most of us would not otherwise have had. This material affords us much better overview with which to seek more corroborating information in other sources.
Thank you for your valued assistance and insights.
