Just got the latest book list from N & P and Sir Martin Farndale's history is back on sale at £30 (RRP £75) Well worth getting hold of, though he does love his exclamation marks!

It is good to see General Farndales book back on sale. It is neccessary reading for anyone with a deep interest in the Royal Artillery. I remember him going around the Regiments trying to sell the original. I must admit !!! his use !!! of exclamation marks !!!!!! drives me mad !!!!!!!.

I think one of his aims was to try to mention every unit at least once, which he seems to have a long way in doing. Parts of it are a good read, others can be very difficult.

And as someone pointed out in a post it is very biased towards the Royal Artillery, and it was as if the infantry need not have bothered to turn up.
