Sounds more like the Kerensky Offensives, but it's definitely not the winter battle. Thanks for the info.

loved this to bits and cannot wait for part two now. Anybody here know if there are many more in French?

Also got the latest Jason Goodwin novel about Yashim the eunoch detective in Ottoman Turkey so probably an early night for me tonight as I have not had anything decent for a bedtime read for a while.

[Le matou rouge]

Anybody here no if there are many more in French?

Yesterday I was suprised by the postman with a free signed copy of Simon Girty, Turncoat Hero! Girty is a truly fascinating character. In the US he was villified as a traitor to his country and his race, but in Canada and many Indian tribes he is considered a folk hero. I personally feel he fits more in the hero category, but obviously he would make a great character either way in games of Among the War Parties or This Very Ground. The icing on the cake is that Conquest makes a top-notch figure for Mr. Girty.

Cover art is by none other than the talented Tim Truman.



I think it is an excellent read, but I am biased as I provided some very minor help with the manuscript.

I read this more or less by accident when I found it for $5 in the Last chance bin at Barnes & Noble.  Really enjoyable.  Thanks for alerting me to the sequel.
