The Samurai Armour Glossary by I Bottomley / D Thatcher

[DaveT]

After months of work we have compiled a glossary of Japanese Armour terms. The glossary can be viewed online via a desktop or smart device. It can also be downloaded as a PDF for you to keep. We hope you enjoy the first of many books and papers that are 100% free. Hosted via ISSUU.

Dave and Ian:

Thanks for the work! I do not see how I can download a PDF. If I could I would keep it on my tablet as a great reference. Hints appreciated.

Hi Barry, there is a big green download button that directs you to the download link. Maybe not showing on your browser? It is big. John

Hi JOhn:

I switched to IE and saw the download button - actually it downloaded a toolbar I did not want and then wanted to change my homepage, search engine etc. Still no PDF file. I went through the process several times only to get the same crap. Is there an easy place to get the PDF like yousendit?

If one of the authors would be willing to email me the pdf and give permission, I could host the file in our articles section?

Sure, its a free publication for all to share, to more the merrier. Ian and myself are very happy that's it's being used.

Please send me your email.

[Brian]

That is a very nice an useful resource. Best of all it is free which is very generous of David and Paul. Thank you very much for providing it.

 

Just as a thought, the inclusion of the kanji for each term would be very useful and interesting for me.

The inclusion of kanji would be a real asset, unfortunately I don't speak or write Japanese. Ian is more knowledgeable on this matter. If there is a board member who would like to contribute to providing the kanji I will being more than happy to revise the publication.

 

We are currently working on a new armour related publication that will be released in March called the Katchu Digest. Again this will be free to download.
