Greenhill Web Site

Greenhill's web site has been a tremendous success, publicising and promoting books across the world via the Internet. The growth of people coming to the site is as follows:

    September 1998: 655
    October 1998: 2244
    November 1998: 3285
    December 1988: 3728
    January 1999: 6107
    February 1999: 5448
    March 1999: 6408
    April 1999: 7519
    May 1999: 10,424

Now, to build on the above interest in the site we have expanded and developed it still further. New features include:

The presentation of extensive extracts from Greenhill books. This will be an on-going project and at present we have chapters loaded from four books:

    A biography of Sir Charles Oman (from A History of the Peninsular War, Volume IX Edited by Paddy Griffith)

    Bernard Cornwell's Introduction to On the Road with Wellington

    A description of the siege of Saragossa, 1808, from the forthcoming memoirs of Heinrich von Brandt (In the Legions of Napoleon).

    Hitler's speech to his generals from Battle of the Bulge: The German View.

A 'Book of the Month', illustrating and promoting a key title on the homepage. Clicking on the images takes you to more information on the book.

A 'This Month in Military History' section, which presents a detailed chronology of military events for the relevant day of each month. This fascinating compilation is a unique resource on more than 2,000 years of conflict. The first month to be loaded will be July with 220 entries.

An expanded and updated G.I. Series Index. This key guide by Dr John Langellier covers 2,000 images in the G.I. Series and details (by both subject and topic) 1,811 black and white and 225 colour images.

Details of Greenhill's forthcoming new books for the second half of the year. Now available are full descriptions of books we are publishing between July and December 1999.

These new features complement the existing information on the site: details of over 190 in-print publications, highlights of American publications Greenhill distribute internationally, background information about Greenhill, links to other web sites of interest to the military enthusiast, and, of course, online editions of Greenhill Military Book News.
