1.	[no image]	Battles for Scandinavia (World War II #28) from Time Life Education Customer Review: Before reading this volume, I knew very little about the battles for Scandinavia during WWII. I found these stories to be some of the best in the whole series. Included are the usual Time-Life collection of hundreds of photographs, illustrations, artwork, and maps that supplement clear and... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

2.		Amateurs, To Arms!: A Military History Of The War Of 1812 (Major Battles and Campaigns) from Da Capo Press Price: $18.00 Customer Review: The late Colonel Elting's Amateurs, To Arms! is a great book. I read this book during a period study in the early 90's but never thought I'd done the book justice (too big a hurry). This past weekend I took some time to savor good military writing. COL Elting spares no one in praise or frank... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

3.		Swords Around A Throne from Da Capo Press Price: $24.32 Customer Review: I've just finished reading Mr Elting's Swords Around A Throne. I found the whole book facinating, from the tough Grognards of the Imperial Guard to the train and supply troops and the final chapters on the Bourbon army (a misnomer perhaps to call them an army!)a throughly enjoyable read. Highly... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		A Military History and Atlas of the Napoleonic Wars from Greenhill Books Customer Review: This book is definitive, and remarkably useful. It is an absolutely necessary companion to the study of Napoleon's military career. It is curiously shaped (with pages wider than they are long) formatted so that when the book is open the right hand page displays a map showing a military situation... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.	[no image]	NAPOLEONIC UNIFORMS: 2 Volume Boxed Set from Casemate Price: $209.30 Customer Review: Beautiful fabric covered books and slip case with gold lettering look like they belong in a classic library. Content is of course the best reprint of plates. Cost can put many off, but the tremendous amount of content could only be made up with 15+ other uniform books, making it a decent value	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.	[no image]	Military Uniforms in America: Years of Growth, 1796-1851, Vol. 2 from Presidio Press Customer Review: This second volume in a four volume series telling the story of military uniforms worn by the combatants in the different wars in North America is simply superb. It covers a period that is not popular, the War of 1812 and the Mexican War, but it is a period that is full of high deeds, great... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

9.	[no image]	Military History and Atlas of Napoleonic Wars from Ams Pr Inc Customer Review: There is no other book like this available to the public. By all accounts, a reasonably accurate account of the Napoleonic wars, except accompanied by an extensive set of maps that I have never seen elsewhere. If your serious about military or Napoleonic history, try to get a copy of... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.	[no image]	The Battles of Saratoga (Philip Freneau Press Bicentennial Series on the American Revolution.) from Phillip Freneau Pr Customer Review: A fabulous book. It must be brought back into print. It inspired my July 4 Walking tours of Lower Manhattan. Even though I disagree with statements at the end about General Horatio Gates, it is absolutely first class. James S.
