The Civil War / Box Set
William C. Davis

Salamander Books Ltd, 1999

The American Civil War remains the country's national epic, having changed the fledgling "Union" into the "United States." The scars of that devastating internecine conflict have long since disappeared, but there remains a seemingly insatiable desire to learn more of the circumstances and the detail of the war. This beautifully illustrated book provides that detail, particularly in regard to the tactical deployment of forces in the field and the ...
  
  











  



  
Warfare in the Classical World: War and the Ancient Civilisations of Greece and Rome (Classic Conflicts ...3 reviews
John Gibson Warry

Salamander Books Ltd, 1998

A delighting trip over our past
A look at our past is a look at out past wars. All over the history, civilizations, kingdoms and states have emerged, survived or obliterated based in their skill to win battle after battle (not only at the battlefields but also at the political arena). I am afraid it's not different nowdays. It's interesting to have a look at gifted generals whose best skill was to know the timely place and time ...

Book of Japanese Cooking2 reviews
Emi Kazuko

Salamander Books Ltd, 2000

Japanese food is art, but I am not an artist.
At least thats what I thought before I purchased this book. The picture on the cover, showing me three delectable plates of Japanese cooking, basicaly sold this book for me. When I recieved Emi's book I was starting to think that maybe this was just a little to advanced for me. As I browsed through the pages looking at all the beautiful photographs of the finished dishes and reading parts of ...

The Illustrated Directory of Special Forces1 review

Salamander Books Ltd, 2002

Good, concise review
I enjoy reading this book. They certainly packed in enough material and it is very portable. The reason that I did not give five stars was because the picture quality and the placement of the pictures was not that good. Overall, though, it's a great little overview of the special forces of the world and some of their history.
  
  











  



  
A Fishkeeper's Guide to Aquarium Plants: A Superbly Illustrated Guide to Growing Healthy Aquarium Plants, ...7 reviews
Barry James

Salamander Books Ltd, 1986

Good Solid Concise Information on Aquarium Plants
I purchased this book because of the other reviews. I have not been disappointed. Even though I just started reading it last night, I can already recommend it. It's not overly technical, but technical enough to answer all my questions (and I love technical info). For me it offers exactly the right mix of useful info, presented in a concise manner, and is enjoyable to read. After only 20 ...
  
  











  



  
The Illustrated Directory of Tanks of the World1 review
David Miller

Salamander Books Ltd., 2000

AN EXCELLENT SURVEY OF THE WORLD'S MAJOR TANKS BUT ONLY A FAIR IDENTIFICATION TOOL
IN A NUTSHELL: HANDY - FULL OF NICE PHOTOS & USEFUL INFO BUT . . . . Shaped like a small brick and filled with close-up photos of tanks on station and in action, 'The Illustrated Directory of Tanks of the World', by David Miller, is undeniably both handy and useful. Organized by country, the tanks are presented as they occurred -- historically. Each tank gets several full pages of text ...

The Illustrated Directory of Tractors (Illustrated Directory)2 reviews
Peter Henshaw

Salamander Books Ltd, 2002

A must have item for tractor enthusiasts!
I cannot put in writing how impressed I was with this book. The back cover states that it contains thousands of facts, but it seemed more like tens of thousands while still reading like a story book. The book gives a very good summary of the product lines of all major tractors, both in the US and abroad, as well as examples of some unheard of brands. Facts are given for all of the models that ...

This book is the best book on the Battle of Britain that I have ever come across.

It has a brilliant forward by Air Marshal Sir Denis ...
  
  











  



  
Buckskin and Buffalo1 review
Colin F. Taylor

A really nice educational/coffee table book
This is an amazingly wonderful book! It features excellent color photos, both full-size and detail, of dozens of circa 19th century Plains Indian works of leather, including shirts, leggings, robes, and other practical artwork. Beadwork, quillwork adn paint adorn these works of buffalo deer, elk, antelope and bighorn sheep hides, and the author selected some astoundingly lovely pieces. The ...
