The Perfect Sword: Forging the Dark Ages
Paul Gething
This is the story of the Bamburgh Sword – one of the finest swords ever made. Alongside that, it gives a fascinating insight into the world of experimental archaeology – where archaeologists attempt to recreate an artefact or structure of the past using only the technologies and materials available at the time.
