Gentlemen

I was browsing in one of the secondhand book shops near where I work when I came across the following title: -

The Campaign of Waterloo by John Codman Ropes

It is an 1892 version published by Charles Scribner's Sons of New York but looks in good condition for it's age.

The Waterloo Campaign is a favourite of mine and the price being asked for the book is very reasonable, less than £15. Has anyone read this title, is it a good buy?

I second that. For that price I will buy it from you and pay for shipping if Marechal Beecham doesn't want it. I love old books and maps.
