Hello Gentlemen.
I am looking for books about viking swords, saxes and axes.
I already own Ian peirces: swords of the viking age.
And i think its great.
What other books should i get?
I want to use the books for ideas for future projects.

cheers
Mike

Second on the Short book, and you'll find several reproductions by our very own Jeff Pringle in there. Fantastic read.
