Indispensible reading!
Anything by Duffy is worth getting. This book provides a great insight into the 18th C. military mindset. (Click on image for more info.)

Too many fingers in too many pies at the moment, Jeff, but I'll do my best.
Robert,
Excellent site! I am currently collecting Fontenoy in 25mm ( 25 fig battalions, 12 Fig Squadrons ) with one to one infantry regiments. I have all 20 Brits, all Hanovarians and most of the French done and am just starting on the Dutch- Thanks for all the uniform detail on here, but do you know of any primary source material about Dutch deployments or positions of units on the day? Any help greatly appreciated!
Keep up the good work
It is far too long since you've posted on "Will ye go to Flanders", Robert.
Surely you can find something to write about on the WAS . . . come on, give it a go, sir.
