Ed, what a coincidence, a little bird told me I am getting volume one (well, I bet I am, since it is on the top of my amazon wish list). I did not know vol 2 was out.... So, I am guessing by New Years day or at teh latest Washingtons Birthday I will have an answer for you! It is on sale too!

Gill's work, "With Eagles to Glory" on the German allies for this period was excellent. I used it extensively for Eckmuhl and Wagram. I see that the price of that volume has soared on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Eagles-Glory-Napo ... 426&sr=8-1 Cant afford any new books for now. Have seen his works advertised but will have to pass this time around.

Thanks Ed, I saw volume one for about $34 or so on amazon and, seeing as I have a birthday (34 also, hmmm) in Feb, maybe I can beg my way to both.... But th eone Bill posted is really expensive. That is not a book, that is a college loan payment (well, a partial)! Feldmarschall Jim 'Prinz' Pfluecke Commander, Austrian Cavalry Reserve 3 Graf O'Reilly Chevauxleger Rgt Hahn Grenadier Bn |

Found one or two on Abe's Books much cheaper: http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDet ... 83%26y%3D2 More in the ballpark even if its used. Really good book on the German allies. Matter of fact there were more Allies for Napoleon than the Austrians had and I asked John Tiller if we could have the sides called "Allies" for the French and "Austrians" for the Austrians!
