Gents, on another book hunt here (yes, now you know how I spend my time) Any recommendations on the 30 Years War, in particular Breitenfeld or Lutzen? Sgt. Gary McClellan 12th Light Dragoons - 1st Reg, 2nd Brig, 2nd Div. CO, Northern Department |

Hi Gary, I wrote a friend about this, and here's what he returned: Also here are my TYW favorites...all by the same author....by Catherine V. Wedgwood .... all excellent stuff and very readable. If you need I have a great source for hard to find Military History books that I'd be happy to forward should you need it. "The Thirty Years War" (TWY in Continental Europe) These are all on the English Civil War: The King's Peace The King's War A Coffin for King Charles Another great book is "The Thirty Years War" by Geoffrey Parker...considered by many to be the ultimate authority on the topic. Another great, great book. Easier to find than the Wedgewood and easily available at Amazon.com. <HTML> Lt. Col. Hamilton, New York Militia</HTML> |
