description: From the time man first learned to fight with a sharpened stick, and to hold up a piece of wood against the sharpened sticks of his enemies, his arms and armour developed in variety, ingenuity, beauty, and fascination for the modern. This book tells the entire story of that development and its products, from the flint arrowhead to the invention of gunpowder.
