Angus Artwork

Wholeheartedly agree with the previous review. Too ambitious to catalog so many culturally different peoples over so long a period of time. Wouldve been better to concentrate on one or two at the most. However, the fabulous artwork is worth the small sum of the books price.

Too Much Time and Space for One Little Book

Covering 2500 years and a fair chunk of real estate in 40 pages, this volume of the normally quite nice Osprey Military books is only recomendable for the Angus McBride art. It concentrates on the better known states, when the limited size would have done well for a study some of the lesser known states and left the Egyptians, Hittites, Assyrians and such for their own volumes. However, it does have a nice integrated timeline, and the aforementioned wonderful Angus McBride art.
