Blazers: Weapons of War series.
These volumes convey very basic information on the subjects. The simple texts include highlighted words defined on the pages and often accompanied by illustrations, though some missing captions create confusion. The pictures are a hodgepodge of black-and-white and color reproductions and photographs; they do help illustrate the types of weapons, defenses, and tactics that were in use. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Blazers: Weapons of War titles: Weapons of Ancient Times and Weapons of the Middle Ages.
