As I was making notes of the contents for my files I decided I'd share
with you.

I've got all six of the yearbooks and the three individual armouries
albums.
There are also specialized books on Crossbows and Springalds, the
Medieval
Armour from Rhodes, etc.
All of them are currently avaiiable:
ROYAL ARMOURIES BOOKS:
	Yearbook 1  £15
	Yearbook 2. £15 has an article on making a Cuir Boulli helmet.
	Yearbook 3. £15 
	Yearbook 4  £15
	Yearbook 5  £15
Of course the problem with obtaining one is that you want all of them.
Not all the articles in each one is shown on the website either. Only
about half.
These are well worth the money. They take credit/debit cards.

Until the end of June shipping on the [Royal Armouries Yearbook 6] is
free from
England which is a great savings to you. Currently the £ is about 1.5 to
the U.S.$.
Normally the shipping out of the UK is £5 or about $7.50 U.S.
