I had just received your books on the Prussian Uniforms …..they are excellent !!! Would you ever think about doing a set for the 1806 Uniforms ? |

Dear George
It is good to hear a satisfied customer. Yes I have the a draft of the book with most of the plates. It is waiting for the pubisher Partizan Press to say he would like me to start this again. He had a draft of it almost a decade ago. Just finished a reprint
Adye (1813) Bombardier and Pocket Gunner [an essential aide memoire to British Ordnance that is quoted by anybody on the subject ever since.] for Partizan Press Summerfield (2009) Dupin's British Napoleonic Ordnance, DP&G that has over 50 plates of British Ordnance c1816 all drawn to a metric scale. Currently writing an introduction on the Royal Artillery and 100 RA Biographies to the Swabey Diaries 1807, 1811-13. It is as ever driven by the publishers as to what I produce. Stephen |

I really wish someone would do a book on the Early Prussian Uniforms as they can be very confusing with all the lace, pom-poms ect. I would highly recommend your books to others and already have too a few of my customers ….. again well done !! |

PS – Dr. Steven Summerfield ……. I'm sorry I had missed that before !! |

Dear George
The format of the Partizan Books is much better than the (2005) Cossack Hurrah and (2007) The Brazen Cross on Russian Napoleonic Militia. Alas I was constrained to only a dozen pages of colour. It was worth the wait although it did mean that I had to start again as I had produced most of the illustrations in B&W. My aim for the Prussian 1806 book like the recent one is to illustrate all the regiments. I now have illustrations of all the regiments. Stephen |

Dear Shortcut
I am very busy on a series of other projects for him. It will take over a year to write and put together. Thanks for your kind words. Stephen |

No worries, I'll be seeing him next week anyway and I'll tell him myself ! |

Dr. Summerfield –
I was wondering are they going to be doing the Prussian Cavalry and Landwehr Infantry to finish the series ? I have very much enjoyed your books |

Dear George
I have just finished Saxon Artillery 1733-1827 for Partizan Press and looking forward to seeing the proof copy. Alas writing books takes a considerable amount of time. Stephen |
