Default Request for Help with Kaskara Research

I am due to make another presentation to the Arms and Armour Society on continuing research into the Kaskara and my tentative classification.

I desperately need a copy of "European Blades in Tuareg Swords and Daggers" by Dr. Lloyd Cabot Briggs (Journal of the Arms & Armour Society Vol.5 #2, 1965) in any format - a scan would be perfect.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance, Stephen.

I'm in the process of tracking down a copy. I should know by the end of next week if it's possible. I'll be happy to share if I do get my hands on it.

...actually, it was £15 I think.

The first ten volumes of the Journal are available on cdrom at £15 each for members and £20 for non-members. I paid the Treasurer for mine at the last meeting and it was posted to me. I will find out at the next meeting the contact details and post them here.

Ms. Bailey of the Arms and Armour Society has kindly advised me that details on ordering this disc can be found at this link. I really wish more resources would provide this These journals have always been like treasure in my years of research, and I look forward to getting this!!! Thank you Stephen for bringing this to our attention.
