Reviews

"Generally interesting analysis, although rather truncated in describing operations after the fall of Rome, as if nothing happened for a year or the author ran into deadline pressure. Nothing particularly new here and a large section of the 'where to land after Africa' discussion seems taken from the US Army green book."--Russ Lockwood "Historical Miniatures Gaming Society"
