Customers looking for the latest in new special interest books will soon be able to purchase “BLACK BLADES ~ For Those ‘White Walkers’ Of The Frozen North” coming out this week from Black Rock Publishing. Today, F. Scott Crawford, owner/publisher and long time flint knapper/arrowhead collector at Black Rock Publishing releases details about the development of “BLACK BLADES ~ For Those ‘White Walkers’ Of The Frozen North”.
“BLACK BLADES ~ For Those ‘White Walkers’ Of The Frozen North” is designed, photographed and written to appeal specifically to ancient stone artifact collectors and to fans of the popular television series “Game of Thrones” and includes:
A photographic study of an authentic Paleo Period “Black Blade” of Obsidian — Made by a highly skilled “flint knapper” over 10,000 years ago. This natural volcanic glass knife was included because it was so effectively designed for hunting, dispatching and processing really big game animals … like woolly mammoths and giant bison. This is a great example for the collecting community and students of archaeology as an ancient, authentic artifact for the collector to examine in fine detail.
Several Archaic Period “Black Blades” of Obsidian – These were made part of the book, since they demonstrate the tremendous variety of designs of obsidian blades made over vast periods of time in the Great Basin and the Pacific Northwest. Customers who read “BLACK BLADES ~ For Those ‘White Walkers’ Of The Frozen North” should enjoy this feature because they will get to see the variety of ancient knives created and used across much of North America.
Modern made “Black Blades” of Obsidian. – Black Rock Publishing made sure to make this part of the new book’s development for fans of the “Game of Thrones” television series who want to see what real “Black Blades” are like. Readers will likely appreciate this because it shows that modern flint knappers can still produce useful “Black Blades” to protect folks from those horrible, zomby-like “White Walkers” in the world of fantasy and television.
F. Scott Crawford, when asked about “BLACK BLADES ~ For Those ‘White Walkers’ Of The Frozen North” said:
“”Fans of G.O.T. may remember John Snow’s young “Maester” on the ice wall, and the obsidian Blades which he found … which turned out to be the only way to dispatch the dreaded “White Walkers” from the frozen north. Well, these obsidian blades from 10,000 years ago are the real thing … not some TV props.””
Since 2013, every week Black Rock Publishing publishes an e-newsletter for collectors of ancient and authentic artifacts … “The QUIVER” … every Monday morning it comes out with information about arrowhead collecting.
Crawford is particularly excited about this new book release because “this will make it possible for collectors and fans to see Obsidian ‘Black Blades’ in fine detail and to appreciate the effort ancient cultures went to to protect and to provide for their families.”
