If you have not heard, there is good news. Rawkins books are available through Anschluss Publishing once again. Just a few titles initially. It appears plans are to add more until completion of the series of books. link |

This is truly great news! Rawkins books need to stay available to serious students of the Napoleonic wars! If they have kept the content the same then 3 cheers for Anschluss! |

That is excellent news. I will be picking a few up. Thanks |

I liked where they say 'the first in a large series'. I have just subscribed for updates and news. |

Terrific news – thanks for sharing that! |

This would be very good news. I was wondering if they will be reissued electronically. My copy of the one on the Austrian-Hungarian army is more than 400 pages long so I doubt that a physical copy would be economical. Does anyone have more information? |

@Trockledockle, From an exchange I had earlier about the Baden Wurttemberg volume it was very clear that it was to be an abridged version of Rawkins' work. I suspect all of the printed volumes will also be abridged because of costs. In my personal view as I expressed at the time it would be far better to issue the full versions as CDs even if they charged a bit more than Rawkins did! |

This is excellent news thank you. I take it what we purchase will be a paper copy (edited in some way we don't understand, but hopefully in a way that is not too detrimental), rather than a disc or electronic format. I'm initially interested in the Baden volume that appears on the page and the Hesse one when it appears. Regards,
John |
