Publication History

De Nassavsche Wapen-Handelinge van Schilt, Spies, Rappier end Targe was first published in 1618 in the Hague, Netherlands. Noted artist Adam van Breen provided the artwork, but the author of the text is unknown, as is the original language of the treatise editions in Dutch, French, and German all survive from that year.

An English translation was produced in 1625, printed by Roger Daniell. The author of the translation is likewise unknown, and unlike the prior editions, it appears to have been hand-written onto the illustrated pages.
