My new regular destination when shopping in Liverpool is
Henry Bohn Books, It's one of those marvellous second-hand bookshops that's literally crammed from floor to ceiling. There's a pretty good military history section and while I couldn't find Christopher Duffy's
The Military Experience in the Age of Reason, I did find this for a fiver:
I'm also very pleased to have picked up
Victory in the West, the two volume HMSO official history of the British campaigns in northern Europe from D Day to the fall of the Third Reich. I suspect the text may be available on line somewhere but this edition has all of the fold-out maps intact.

Great find with the 'Victory in the West' set.

Thanks for the link to the store Richard. I will look them up next time I venture across the water. Good find with "Victory in the West".
Cheers, Andy
I'm pleased with Victory in the West. A quick glance through this morning shows that the Operation Veritable map would have been ideal in setting up the terrain for the central table for Crisis Point I.
Edited: It is of course "Victory In the West" rather than the far more Germanic "Triumph...".
