Christmas came early this year thanks to Amazon UK…you can get Bernard’s newest book 3 months early…also Waterloo… Up late last night enjoying yet another great read…The opening discusses the inlay on the sword…PBS did a piece called “Secrets of the Viking Sword” last year where they discuss the history of the high carbon steel swords with the inlay, and actually recreate one.. fascinating… Thanks again for your wonderful writing.
