Swords!

I picked two volumes on swords at Borders last night. One of them traces the archaeology of swords and other weapons while the other is detailed examination of various types. I also picked up a small volume on the Roman Army. I was browsing through something by Michael Grant which examined the reliability of Greek and Roman classics.

While I stopped by Burger King for a drink, I managed to do four quick but satisfying sketches. Three landscapes and one Roman centurion.
