As well as being called bonkers I have been asked by many what is my pimary source in English for detailed military history and actions.of The Greek Wsr of Independence. MY recommendation is the excellent two volumes by Thomas Gordon called History Of The Greek Revolution published by Elibron Ckassics, easily obtainable from Amazon. There is plenty of inspiration for actual scenarios both skirmish as well as set piece battles. If one speaks Greenk there are many good accounts by participants |

"That Greece might be free, the Phihellenes in the Greek Revolution." is good, gives a European view of the Greeks
and how they reacted to European tactics. Brewer's book is easy to get and covers the period. You can also look around and get a translation of Kolokotones' and Makriyannis' memoirs. |
