Joseph Morschauser was born on this day in 1924. Old school war gamers will be familiar with his book: ‘How to Play War Games in Miniature'. A new post on Table Top Talk will give you a little more insight into his life; a short autobiographical piece from June of 1961.

Enjoy your day with family and friends, and later pop on over and enjoy a short read about Joe Morschauser.

Very informative … and a fitting memorial on a Joe's birthday.

Joe's book was my introduction to the hobby; I found it in the Library, and acquired my own copy years later.
