About the book >.>.> The shield generally adopted by the Norman cavalry was kite-shaped and prob- ably of Sicilian origin, it was either flat, or round so as to encircle the body to some extent. The protection afforded by such a shield is obvious, inasmuch as it guarded the upper part of the body where it was the broadest, and by tapering downwards defended the left leg. It was invariably made of wood and covered on both sides with leather, in addition to which extra defences of metal were added." -from European Arms & Armor The study of arms and armor appeals to students of history, to antiquarians, and to patrons of art. To historians it is a concrete reminder of the struggles of nations for liberty, power, or conquest; to antiquarians it breathes of the age in which it saw light with all the feeling and tone that characterized it; to the patron of art it is a source of delight by the beauty of its form, or unique and exquisite detail of its adornment.
