Guest Posted 13 May , 2016 Share Posted 13 May , 2016 One might add OUP to the list of publishers out of touch with the market. Mark Harrison's "The Medical War: British Military Medicine in the First World War" is a superb book that costs a small fortune. MG I see that Doctrine and Reform in the British Cavalry 1880 - 1918 has appreciated in price since purchasing it in 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staffsyeoman Posted 14 May , 2016 Share Posted 14 May , 2016 Gareth By all means quote me to Helion, I have in the past let them know directly how impressed I am with their products. Now, if you can persuade them to acquire the publishing rights to those interesting volumes at Ashgate, Cambridge, Palgrave MacMillan etc, etc......... Same here. I know Duncan and many of his team well and am on standing distribution for review copies (not just on WW1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
