The "people" at the Fox Den is my son James Lowry.

He is putting all my old magazines and booklets online and adding his "Fox Hole" comments about how they came to be, what else was going on in the hobby at the time, etc. It's a labor of love, mostly.

Incidentally, so as not to mislead anyone, the booklet about Battle of the Bulge is about the old Avalon Hill Gaming Co. board game, strategies for it, etc.
