Very pleased - and a bargain to boot!
This is nice series of large format hardback books and I already own the titles covering the ‘45 and the Zulu War (covering the battles of Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift). By no means are they definitive works but they certainly look nice and serve a very good primers. The plates are also vey nice - in many ways these could almost be viewed as Osprey Menat Arms on steroids.
All this Afghanistan malarkey is leading up to a front loading for retirement project and so I have at least managed to secure the appropriate reference material.
Felling suitably pleased and inspired by degrees!

Hmm, makes my want to look into it, like I need another project...😁
I too had this book once upon a time, I've no clue what happened to my book???
A very handsome volume.
Having just finished Hopkirk's 'The Great Game', which is a superb read, it did make me think many a time of loads of wargmaing options from big battles in the desert wastes through to small actions in the Pamirs etc.
Hi Bob,
It is a very useful addition to my Afghanistan library for sure!
All the best,
