       There seems to be a lot of Interest in the Ottoman Armies .  :o   Osprey Men at Arms well be releasing  the Ottoman Armies 1820-1914 in August. Next would be Helion & Company The Ottoman Armies of the Napoleonic Wars 1784-1815 .  If anyone has this book I would like to know what you think of the art work . Third would be the Italian Soldier shop  and the web page the Ottoman Army .  Next the 16th and 17th Centuries. The Men of Warre, The Tutor Art of War 2 volumes, Irish 16th century Armies  by Helion & Company. My book on the Irish of this period is from Wargames Foundry 16th Century Armies.  8)  More Ospreys Men at Arms would be The Dacians and Gelae at War. The Dutch Indonesian War 1945-1949 comes out in June, Medieval Indian Armies #2 Czechoslovak Armies 1939-1945 well be released 2024,The Union Army Vol 1 by Ron Field.  ::)  Ok this is my take on the Civil War book. This Author has written lots of books on the Civil War in this series and I have them, I just don't see it what am I missing here  :-\  let me know what you think. Willie

The e-books and mags copied to hard disc is good, but in ten years you computer will not be able to read the disc or program you have saved your details too, the book I can always pick up a read.

Well, like the rest of humanity, we never learn!
I guess we will keep buying books and figures and enjoying them and our friends because we can! 8)
Michel, the show sounds wonderful! I too have the Funken books, and they are my "bibles" on costumes.
