DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. An encyclopedic history of Irish soldiery from the Norman period to the 20th century. To condense the history of Irishmen at arms into a single readable volume is no mean feat, and hefty one at that.
