I think I will need to buy the first one. I really enjoyed the Sidebottom books - 3 so far in the series. I thought the first in the napoleon/wellington series was the best.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Guyguy barlownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33041938.post-18766204721308458302011-02-15T08:16:35.553+00:002011-02-15T08:16:35.553+00:00Cheers guys...

I am endlessly impressed with any author who can get published, Scarrow's four volumes represent an enormous amount of work & effort, but it just fell slightly short for me.... it's well worth borrowing for a read, or buy it second hand....Steve-the-Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077311120172727690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33041938.post-78576818048834448372011-02-15T06:14:10.685+00:002011-02-15T06:14:10.685+00:00Personally I never got past volume 1.

As a result I've not bothered with the others and don't feel as I'm missing out by doing so.marinergrimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01393687295535460527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33041938.post-6206580882335128692011-02-15T04:40:36.400+00:002011-02-15T04:40:36.400+00:00Damned with faint praise Steve!
