Comments are off

A clutch of BCMH Members have been involved in Stephen Petty's book about the Peninsular War which is aimed at children. The late Sir Christopher Wallace inspired it, Stephen Petty has written it, Dick Tennant and Philip Haythornthwaite have assisted in various ways as, doubtless, have many others.

As I am just reading Georgette Heyer's The Spanish Bride I applaud the author's preference for background reading!
