HELP! It is driving me nuts.
I am trying to remember a book I once owned which gave details of the Armies of the 100 Days campaigns. I know it had quite lot of information on the Brunswick Army that is why I got it.
The book itself was one of those home made cottage industry type books similar to those sold at Caliver books I have checked their site to no avail.
It does not help as I cant remember the title its contents covered Quatre Bras and Ligny with possibly Waterloo, Brunswick and possibly KGL army orginisation and commanders and deployment too.
The cover was a Sandy Cardboard the paper was cheap matt quality the pictures possibly hand drawn. I bought this between 1987-1997.
In the back of my mind Anschluss Publishing is jogging the old grey cells a bitNow we're cooking with gas!!!
it was The Brunswick Army by W.J Rawkiins
Some informationAnschluss Publishing, 1980. "In the late 1970s and the early 1980s, W.J. Rawkins produced a series of uniform books on the various armies of the Napoleonic Wars. These books were unique because they covered most of the minor countries of the period. The books are similar in size and contents, with each about 30 pages long, with four pages of line drawings illustrating the various features of the uniforms, plus charts showing facings, plumes, lace, and other regimental distinctions." Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Q. I had heard that you had sold the rights to these books to Anschluss Publishing in the 1990's?
A. Several 'pirated' versions in paper and e-book format have appeared briefly over the years since the series went Out of Print in 1984. At no time has the copyright been sold or transferred or permission given to any person or company to publish or copy any part of these works.
