« on: February 15, 2014, 12:00:01 PM »
Chaps

Just to advise i have written my first book (with the assistance of S Summerfield) on the Spanish Infantry of the Early Peninsular War
covering in great detail the uniforms organisation and equipment of the
line and militia ..full of colour plates and all the information you will
ever need/ flags/facings/charts/orders of battle. this is Volume 1 of
a 2 volume set ..the second will cover Guard/Cavalry/artillery..(90pct done!).....hopefull release date 14.2.2014 at Salute.and again hopefully i will have copies to sell on my Gringo40s stand (price gbp35.00) hardback with the best illustrations available on this gloriously uniformed Army m  regards Ged www.gringo40s.com  :D

Now you just have to produce a nice range of 28mm figures to compliment the book.

Excellent stuff Ged, congratulations. Now how do you fancy doing the same for the 1812 Italian army?
