Gabriele Esposito's Armies of the Medieval Italian Wars 1125–1325 (Men-at-Arms 523), illustrated beautifully by Giuseppe Rava, arrived today. This should calm my nerves a bit when it comes to planning out the painting of my Later Communal Italian army.
Note to Amazon: Please, for the love of all that is good and sacred, start shipping books so that they're better protected against damage!!! I bought this as "new" but it looks like it has seen plenty of action in the past; the cover has a couple of creases, corners bent, scuff marks, etc.
