Военно-исторический Форум (XV, XVII-XVIII-XIX век) > The Revolutionary and Napoleonic era, 18th-19th cc. - English version > Books review and publications Our Rules
Welcome! The Forum is proud to announce its long-awaited English version, which will allow the communicating to academics and buffs alike on all matters related to the civil and military history, re-enacting, toy soldiers making and collecting, books discussion and much more! Being a “little brother” of one of the world renowned www.napoleonic-series.org., the English section of the Russian Forum will continue its long established traditions by bringing together various proposals, ideas and controversial points of views. We offer the following rubrics (subsections):
Books review and publications: what’s new on the market and whether we should read it.
First, to be able to use the our Forum, please set up a profile, which must contain your real name and a valid e-mail address
Next, consider our rules; but they are simple. Please be inclusive – try to convey your topic in a way equally understandable for both a schoolboy and a college professor. When posting a picture, text or a web-link - always include your source, wherever applicable. Be professional – speak of the topic, critique opponent’s opinion but not the opponent himself. Be patient – because of the time difference, allow some extra time for an answer. You should post in English or – if some of you would like to practice his/her Russian – we will be glad to help your practice!
So, start posting – make yourself at home!

Eman, could you give some samples? I`m thinking about ordering this book also but so far my knowledge about French in Middle East apart from well know facts about Napoleon`s road there is very limited. Maybe these are the ones that you mentioned in your post  |

Sandris, labdien
Well, Yves' interview gave some highlights; in his several e-mails to me he had also stressed out his "revisionist" position toward Rigo. My order should arrive shortly and upon receipt I'll be able to dwell on this or that aspects more diligently.  There is a short review on the Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/French-Army-Orient-1...nt+1798-1801%22 Planning to visit Riga in this May, BTW Сообщение отредактировал Eman - 19.1.2018, 19:52 -------------------- "A real scholar's education is greatly improved by traveling in quest of knowledge and challenging the most wise men of his times."
