He was always dressing up as a woman or a pathan horse trader! Great stuff! Thanks for the link to the website. George MacDonald Fraser is, along with Rudyard Kipling, my favorite author.

Louis,

You're welcome! I haven't read his last three-esp. want to read Flashman on the March.

Kipling? By jingo, you sound like a dern imperialist!

Seriously though, have you read The Irish Guards in the Great War?(it was reprinted in the late 90s, I think). It's almost like reading a history of WWI on the Western Front. They say Kipling wrote it as a way of dealing with the death of his only son who was killed at age 18 near Loos while serving in the Guard's 2nd Bn.

Best,

Geoff

Dear Geoff,

I loved Flashman on the March, and would definitely recommend it. I haven't read "The Irish Guards in the Great War", but, as Kipling wrote it, I will have to get a copy. Thanks for the heads up.

Regards,

Louis

At the Chicago show every year there is a gentleman with really cool cowboy set ups, right down to two story interiors of saloons complete with gamblers and ladies of ill repute. Are these figures done by that gentleman?

 

[damian]

Louis I have never been to the Chicago show. these figures are by Patrick wallis of Sarum soldiers UK. He is closing down at the end of the month. I would appreciate any info about the gentleman at Chicago if you can get them in Oct

Damian,

Will do! I don't remember what the name of this gentleman's company is, but I will find his information for you if I can.
