I saw this in a local library yesterday. Flipping through it, it looks like an interesting book and one that I was not familiar with, so I'm just passing this on as an FYI… link |

Looks interesting I will have to see if my local library has this available. |

Be aware Tip & Run is the same book. Same author, same content same cover. Just thought I'd mention it. |

@jurgenation: Thanks for that. Is there much wargaming fodder in the book? |

I just got this one on Amazon last week as a matter of fact. Looking forward to it. |

As far as Wargaming Fodder,it is alla matter of Compiling info., from many scources. I have over sixty books on German colonial and respective British books also ,and half my books are in German. Some of the best scources for games would be unit history's or diaries. Battery Press has many books for both sides and recently on E-Bay had a sale going on.Ex: The gold Coast regt,the book "Tanga",specifically on the battle,and even the old packet game Schutztruppe and a S.and T, game. Alxo check out the OstAfrika yahoo group. I hope this is not to confusing. |
