Nice small size but thick book is quite unique. It contains only research about armour kozane with many measurements, diagrams and pictures. A work of love. The writer is a member of the society, and the text was checked by famous armour researcher Motoo Yamagishi, who wrote himself the seminal works on old style Japanese armours.
