I Heard it on the Grapevine

The Dusty Archive

by Paul Chamberlain


George Nafziger's Invasion of Russia will shortly be available in paperback.

I heard that Greenhill will be republishing The West Point Atlas of the Napoleonic Wars - it is likely to come out for NapFair99. Speaking of NapFair99, it will be open a bit longer than previous years - seems that some traders saw people leaving with money still in their wallets.

Other upcoming books from Greenhill are the newly translated memoirs of a Bavarian soldier, A Soldier for Napoleon and Paddy Griffith's The Art of War in Revolutionary France. Andrew Uffindell has collected some of Jac Weller's articles in a book On Wellington The Duke and his Art of War.

Jamie Wilson of Spellmount is re-releasing one of Ian Fletcher's early books, In Hell before Daylight in paperback.

Professor Vljaya Kumar MA has written, informing me of the inaugural meeting of the Napoleonic Society of Karnataka in India. He can be contacted via the Theosophical Women's First Grade College, Hampi Road, HOSPET - 583 201, Bellary District Karnataka, India.

Saw new paper back imprint in one of my local bookshops -Wordsworth Military Library. Picked up a copy of Right of the Line by John Terraine, a history of the RAF in WWII, but they also had Corelli Barnett's Napoleon at £ 3.99! I understand that they will also be re-publishing Christopher Duffy's Military Experience in the Age of Reason at about the same price, so keep your eyes open.

One of these days I promise I'm going to clear my credit cards?!
