A richly illustrated volume on arms and armor brought to North America by French soldiers and settlers from the early 16th century until the independence of the United States of America. The work is not a detailed technical analysis of weapons or armour, but a comprehensive overview of French military weapons and armour in use in North America between 1503 and 1783. The focus is on weapons and pieces of armour that were primarily intended for actual use, rather than decorative pieces.
