The Rapier and Small Sword, 1460-1820 by Alexander Vesey Bethune Norman PDF Summary

Book Description: "In this book I deal principally with the development of certain types of sword hilt from the end of the fifteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century. My conclusions are based as far as possible on dated hilts, since blades are very often not in their original hilts, and more especially on hilts appearing in paintings, particularly portraits. ... At least as far as sword hilts are concerned, my impression is that the painters whose work I have used here are not unreliable."--Preface, page 7.
