Click on an image to enlarge
A MUST HAVE! This isa very nice used copy of the book entitled "Civil War Army Swords; A Study of United States Army Swords from 1832 through 1865" by John H. Tillmann. It is one of the most information packed books to hit the relic world in years. This work covers all swords carried by officers or enlisted men in the United States army from the 1830s until the end of the Civil War. Hundreds of handy tables list measurements and features you need to know. Over 2,000 detailed photographs show you the correct markings, blade etchings, grip wrappings and other small details usually left out of the pictures in sword books! Every single known manufacturer and every sword type is covered. When combined with the author's first book, Civil War Cavalry & Artillery Sabers, this amazing reference guide completes the story of United States swords from the period of about 1830 through the end of the United States Civil War. Includes all sword types, whether for enlisted men or officers. Also includes the best coverage of American presentation swords ever to appear in print. Over 500 hard bound pages and profusely illustrated. It cover not only makers and production numbers but inspector marks. The original dust jacket is intact and also in fine shape. This one is out of print and I have seen used copies prices at over $500 these days. You need to add this one to your Civil War Library Today!
