I've got an extra copy of James Louis Jackson's Three Elizabethan Fencing Manuals (technically four, since it's got both Silver books, Saviolo and Di Grassi in facsimile), but I don't know whether you're looking for facsimiles or stuff like Leoni's Fabris or Forgeng's Meyer.

If Techniques of Medieval Armour Reproduction 14th Cent <pending> falls through let me know I'm sure I've got some stuff that would interest you.

I have Jonathan Sumption's The Hundred Years War 1 - Trial by Battle, which is six hundred and fifty pages of fine typed information.

I gotta warn you. This is some of the driest information that I have ever met. I am just not interested in The Hundred Years war at all. I know that other people are just gaga about it, but it just doesn't interest me in the slightest. It just seems panzy to me.

here is the amazon link

http://www.amazon.com/Hundred-Years-War ... 0812216555

Great reviews. It lists for thirty five. Amazon has it for thirty one and change.

I also have two copies of Warfare in the Classical World by Warry, from Salamander. It lists for just under thirty, but Amazon has it for nineteen and change.

The Troubadores Song sounds really interesting, as I am interested in the beginnings of secular monophony in France, but I can't find anything about the book on line.

I am also interested in the Saxon book.

I am especially interested in the Lull, if it isn't the Chivalry Bookshelf edition. I have that edition on my shelf already. Is it the Caxton translation?

Got Keen's Chivalry?

or maybe The Age of Faith by Durant? I need it to complete the set.

OH, Poop.

I am also interested in TOMAR, if that deal falls through.

Amusingly, TOMAR is the one thing I most adamantly want for my copy of Three Elizabethan Fencing Manuals. :D

I am still waiting on a response to my post.

That response would have made a great bump.
