An additional chapter on Scandinavian bucklers by Rolf Fabricius Warming completes the look at the European buckler.Additionally, the lesser-known Georgian bucklers of the Khevsureti are covered in unprecedented detail.A detailed catalogue brings together over 50 extant bucklers from several museums and collections. Each buckler is presented with complete measurements and several photographs showing all relevant details. Read more
