A landmark pictorial guide to helmets and body armour, produced just a year after the end of the World War I. Written by Bashford Dean—the world authority and Founding Curator of Armor at the Metropolitan Museum of Art—this is a tour de force of early military scholarship. illustrated with 239 images, it ranges widely: armour in the Great War, medical perspectives on helmet design, foreign helmet types (French, British, German, Italian, Belgian, Japanese), and protective gear from eye shields and chain-mail visors to trench shields and breastplates—down to the metals used in their manufacture.
