Title: Grenadiers & Voltigeurs de la Garde imperiale de Napoleon III
Post by: Duke Speedy of Leighton on 05 October 2012, 08:53:51 PM
Every time I Google'd the 1870 Imperial Guard this book kept coming up, so as a birthday present to myself.
I ordered a copy on Tuesday and they arrived today. It's in French with English translations, very detailed illustrations in a computer generated manner.
Published by LRT Editions, costs â,¬19 and almost as much to deliver!!!
Overall like it a lot, may see if there there is an edition for the line and zouaves
It's like the 90s and finding a decent original Osprey again.  ;) ;D

Hold down the "Alt" key and type 130 on the numeric keypad (making sure it's turned on, of course). That will give you é.
If you want other accents you can type other numbers. They run from 129 up to 217. If you want the full list Google "extended ASCII character set"
