Steven Broomfield Posted 30 October , 2019 Share Posted 30 October , 2019 Noticed this on the Pen & Sword list for publication in time for ********s The Dandy Ninth, by Neil Gilhooley The author has quite a few posts across the Forum, and was god enough to send me a pre-publication PDF about a year ago. It looks very good and is available at a pre-publication price. I would certainly recommend it from what I've seen of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neill Gilhooley Posted 30 October , 2019 Share Posted 30 October , 2019 (edited) Thank you Steven, the book is due out on 30 November 2019, so there is a short period of grace before it has to live up to its title. This, I think, is another book that has grown up with the avuncular assistance of the Great War Forum. I am particularly grateful to @gordon92 on uniforms, @Robert Dunlop for translating Fraktur, @AOK4, @pierssc, @david murdoch, @robbie56, @barkalotloudly, @Verrinder Ian, @Ron Abbott, @Aurel Sercu, @matthew lucas, @Open Bolt and Steven Broomfield, as well as @nigelcave and Irene Moore, the editors. You may recognise the great uncle of @alistair_m on the cover: Edited 6 January , 2020 by Neill Gilhooley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neill Gilhooley Posted 9 December , 2019 Share Posted 9 December , 2019 After, it seems, a small delay, it is in print. I can only suggest you buy it for Nigel Cave's foreword, and then you'll get the book for free...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 9 December , 2019 Author Share Posted 9 December , 2019 Hope it arrives in time for the Feastive Season. Should go well with a roaring fire and a glass of something reviving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 18 December , 2019 Author Share Posted 18 December , 2019 Forgot to say - my copy arrived on Saturday; I have two weeks to get the review done for Stand To!, so rather a concentrated reading session. First impressions very positive, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
