Hello all, does anyone know where I could get a copy of Historical Medieval Battles by Peter Sides? I am betting it is out of print, since the publisher seems to be defunct. |

I realize, before the pile on begins, that this is not what you asked, but Oman should have something with maps – believe free as part of Gutenberg Library. Also there were a bunch of scenarios in the Conliffe supplement on the Normans and probably quite a few in the Canadian Wargames Group rules 'Flower of Chivalry' and probably quite a few in Delbruck's second or third volume. I also remember some cool maps and battles in 'World of Wonder' and 'Look and Learn' |

Wow, that's a far cry from $44 USD! Just added The Keep to my favorites! Would be interested in this book too! |

Yes, even with shipping that's a bargain. Thanks very much for the follow ups |

I was not impressed by it either. I seemed to have a better knowledge of several of the battles than the author did! |
