Summary: Usual long Dr. Nicholle intro waffle...
Comment: Poor Dr. Nicholle has so much to tell us from his vast historical knowledge that, as always, he runs out of pages for the actual subject.
Of the 97 pages only pages 63-83 are on the battle and each page has a halve page photo to use up space and there's a double side plate included also in this number.
At the end of the day there's nearly nothing to go round.
As there is hardly any historic sources for the battle the books has not much to say either. Very general and sketchy picture.
Three raiding maps where okay and made for better reading than the book itself which got tedious after 10 pages.
Plates better than Christa Hook any time but still not the old quality.
Explanations for plates left 1/3 of page blank...what a waste...but again what to fill it with!?
A book you dont need.
Overpriced as all Osprey books.
