John Firebrace's second book comes straight off the pages of his collection of the Napoleonic, 1882 and Sudan campaigns. Hence somewhat idiosyncratic, but John's careful collecting eye and encyclopaedic knowledge means that it nevertheless contains much crucially important information and illustrations. |
