Good Photography

More like an adolescent's study on armor. The best thing about the book, and the only reason it gets a 4 star, is the many photographs of historically accurate reproduction armor being worn. As someone who study and collects armor I enjoyed the illustrations.
Entertaining and informative

A great book for those seeking basic information about medieval armor. Not real deep but enjoyable for both young readers and adults. A good companion for other sources.
Excellent book for kids AND adults

Knights in Armor gives an overview of the history of knighthood from its beginnings in the early Middle Ages to its demise. The book also explains the feudal system, women's roles in the Middle Ages and quick history of the Crusades. Especially wonderful are the full-page color photographs of people dressed in medieval clothes and armor depicting scenes of yesteryear. I highly recommend this book for anyone, not just children, who are interested in the Middles Ages (if only for the photographs).
