Does anyone have this and would be willing to offer a short review?

In particular my questions would be3 is it pro-French, Pro-British, Neutral, and also are the OBs detailed and WELL DOCUMENTED, or is he guessing like the rest of us.

I might have the opportunity to pick up a copy at Fall In, and just want to be sure before I fork over my nhard earned shekels. Thanks.

I'm going to order this as soon as I get back from November travels. If you get it at Fall In, Bill, would you post a review here please?

Had a quick look at this book at Fiasco yesterday. The maps are too small so detail is impossible to see. The bibliography was pretty light rather like that in his book on Oudenarde.

Retails for UKP26 which I though a bit expensive for what it was. Did not spend much time looking at the OoB so I cannot offer a comment. My advice would be to have a good look at it before before committing to buy.
