Dear Friends:

Well, let’s start the New Year with some good news – 2019 should be a good one. We plan to publish at least 3 new books, 4 if all goes well. We also are aware of a few more good ones coming from other publishers, so do not throw away your money on unimportant things! We will have news on all these as they come close to publishing dates.

Meanwhile, we want to let you know that we are taking orders for the latest Nuts & Bolts book, number 41. We should have it in our hands by the end of January, so reserve your copy now.

More news soon, have a nice weekend.  John and Sharron

Dear Friends:

It has been a bit quiet on the new book front, but here are a few new interesting titles for your reading pleasure.

From Peko we offer Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B, from Kagero SS-Kampfgruppe Peiper 1943-1945, Romanian Armored Forces in World War II, and Guerrilla Nightmare: Luftwaffe Stukas at War Against Tito’s Partisans in Yugoslavia 1941 – 1945, from Luftfahrtverlag Embleme der Luftwaffe Volume 1: Nah-und Fernaufklarer, and last from Fonthill Heydrich: Dark Shadow of the SS.

         

We do our best to anticipate sales of the various books that we offer. However, not being perfect, sometimes demand exceeds what we have ordered from other publishers and/or distributors. When that happens, we put you on our backorder list and try to get those books to you as soon as we can. Your patience and understanding is appreciated.

We are also working hard on three new books, more info soon.

Till next time, John and Sharron

Dear Friends:

We are happy to let everyone know that POSEN ’45 has arrived and all ordered copies have been sent out. We hope that you enjoy it, all comments are welcome. Judging by sales, it should be sold out fairly quickly.

We have a chance to purchase a set of Panzer Division, Panzergrenadier Division, and Infantry Division histories (photo albums). These are the old Podzun Pallas hard cover books, each 176 pages (except the 11. Panzer), with 300 photos and some maps. Some are German/English, some only have German text. If you are interested in the set or some of them (at least three books to make it affordable for shipping) please let us know. They would be $60.00 – $75.00 CDN each, plus shipping. If there is enough interest we will buy them and contact the interested customers, first come-first served. Here are the books:  Panzer Divisions – 1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 16, 19. Panzergrenadier Divisions – 3, 18, 29. Infantry Division – 5 Jager, 97 Jager, 35, 44, 61, 72, 76, 79, 126, 205, 215, 252, 260, 290. We need to know by Friday Sept 21 to get the ball rolling.

Have a nice weekend, John and Sharron

Dear Friends:

It has been a quite summer re new books and that is why we have not sent out any updates. But, not to worry, we have been busy preparing new books, and we will release news of them over the next few months. This week we have two pieces of information.

Unfortunately, due to the security situation regarding shipments (our container was subjected to a scan and close inspection, and as a result missed the scheduled ship), Posen ’45 has been delayed in reaching us. At this time we expect that it will be here in mid-September, and we will ship it out immediately. We are sorry for this delay but unfortunately this one is out of our control.

We are also announcing a new (revised) book from Waldemar Trojca’s publishing house. Originally published in 2009,  Japanese Hybrid Warships: Technical and Operational History has been updated and expanded by naval expert Hans Lengerer, the drawings and colour plates have been produced by Waldemar Trojca. The first edition of 250 pages has had added to it more photographs, colour drawings and line drawings.

This expanded edition is a large format, hard cover book with the following details:

352 pages, 76 pages of German/English text, 257 photographs (including 32 colour). 150 lined drawings, 209 colour profiles (2D and 3D), 8 maps.

We will receive only one shipment of the book and therefore need to gauge the number that we need to order. When you place your order we will note it, but you will not be charged for the book until it is sent out.. We expect to have the book at the end of November. As the exact price depends on the number of copies we order, at this time we can say that the final price will be approximately $95.00 – $105.00. However, for those of you that order by Sept 9 2018, we will guarantee the price at $90.00.

Well that will do for this week, more news soon. John and Sharron

March 15, 2018

Dear Friends:

Three new books for you this week, from Schiffer Publishing: The 3rd Waffen-SS Panzer Division, 1939-1943, Totenkopf, Vol. 1 and The 3rd Waffen-SS Panzer Division, 1939-1943, Totenkopf, Vol. 2 and from Greenhill Books: Duel Under the Stars. All three are in stock.

 

     

Now for some housekeeping.

The book Himmler’s Favourite from Helion seems to have disappeared from radar. It had been listed as forthcoming, now is on the Publisher’s site as coming in January 2018 (but not yet published), but is not listed by the North American distributor – a mystery EH? So, for those of you that have ordered it, we will keep you on the list and will get back to you when it resurfaces.

More news soon.  Have a nice weekend,  John and Sharron
