And…. Yet More New Books

Greetings …

Napoleon’s Heavy Cavalry and Napoleon’s Dragoons and Lancers…

Yup!…

It was always going to happen…

And of course they are everything that I’ve come to expect from Mr Dawson…

Loads of pictures and information…I am certainly looking forward to taking a deep dive into the subject of Napoleonic French Cavalry…








And the good thing is that the vision in my eye is loads clearer and I have picked up some half decent reading glasses…
Not good enough to paint with…But I should manage some basing.

All the best.  Aly

  6. I have to admit, I don't seem to be buying as many books as I used to... ones like this are a bit too tempting, looks good. I.will.not.start.another.army.

    1. I’m so used to taking my glasses off to look at things up close…
      I have to think twice about popping glasses on… I’m sure I will get used to it…

  10. You're obviously lucky enough to have room on your bookshelves. I need to thin mine again - being obliged to go down the Kindle route is sub-optimal.
    Glad to hear the eye's doing well, bet you're looking forward to getting the other one done.

    1. I have gotten rid of a few books… mostly the sort of uninformative coffee table additions that I was given as presents…
      Yes I am indeed getting impatient about/looking forward too the next operation…

      All the best. Aly
