Welcome to the new issue of Age of Napoleon. I hope that we have picked up where we left off, and that you can all remember where we were last time round.

As most of you probably know, Greenhill Books have passed on the Napoloenic Fair baton to a specialist exhibition company. The 2004 show is now scheduled for 4 April at the Alban Arena in St Albans. Just off the M25, close to Luton Airport, and served by frequent trains from London, there is also car parking nearby. The Fair promises to offer more of what we have come to expect (including spending far too much on too many books, figures and prints, etc).

I hope to see a lot of you there.
