The book "Melee weaponry"

The history of melee weapons may be if only slightly shorter than the history of mankind. The impact of weapons on us, however, cannot be overestimated. Historical periods followed each other all thanks to the industry that developed and, consequently, so did weapons. So and so, the Copper Age was replaced by the Bronze Age, which, in its turn, gave place to the Iron Age. All civilizations that reached a certain level of development (for example, learned to mine and process iron) received a huge advantage as opposed to those tribes that were still in the Bronze Age. And this is just a single example of how important melee weapons are for us, humans.
The book covers the history of the relationship between mankind and melee weapons since ancient times.
