Im very happy to sign anyone’s copy, if they want me to. I’ve spent much of the last year ‘shielding’ in my house because I was on the clinically vulnerable list so I’m not in a hurry to socialise much yet. I have had both my vaccines, which I’m very grateful for. I expect we’re all a bit confused about what we can and can’t do at the moment.

Crowood Press have a lot of modelmaking titles if you check their website.

My book is almost there! Crowood Press expect it to be published at the end of this month but you'll find it advertised for presale on many online bookshops already. Darren of Tommy's War is also planning to stock some, so you should be able to get hold of a copy quite soon. I've tried to make it an interesting mixture of history and modelmaking technique. Below is the synopsis which Crowood have released. My special thanks obviously goes out to Mike the Kiwi for working his wonders on several of my figure conversions. But thank you to you guys too for your support over the years. This forum gets plug in the conclusion, where I encourage people to join places like this for help and support.

…

Look forward to finally seeing your patience rewarded Andy.
I know you set a high benchmark for practical modelling with this book & cannot wait to see it in hard or soft copy.
Appreciate kind acknowledgment mate, seriously though this is testament to your passion, tenacity & professionalism to bring this project to fruition.

Ill be getting a copy.

 

[Babelfish]

Congratulations on the book Andy. WWI isn't my main area of interest, but I might just pick one up anyway as I have found your work on these different trenches (it's museum-quality stuff by the way) most interesting. I'd never realised that there were so many different types.

All the work on this thread is beyond stunning.

Just placed my order for this new book.....not my usual area of modelling, but it will certainly be a classic. It will sit beside my treasured old copy of the "British Dominions Year Book 1915 " which shows all kinds of trench layouts in diagrammatic form, field defences, wire placement, etc.

Thanks guys,
I will let you know when it is going to be released. They send an advanced group of six copies ahead of the main group and I as the author get one of them. I don't have that yet but when I know anything more I'll inform you. I was told that it is due any time now. It's being/been printed in India, and whether COVID will delay that I don't know??

[TERRYSOMME1916]

Yes Andy I will be getting the book in appreciation of the work and labor of love that you guys put into the project and the references it provides and of course a fitting tribute to those who served in the Great War.

[Andrew Belsey]
