Site Owner Posts: 957 | It appears that the WRG Armies and Enemies books have mostly all been reprinted. Apparently with revised forewords by the authors and expanded bibliographies. Macedonian and Punic Wars has the largest revised foreword which can be seen here: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=RLr8CwAAQBAJ&pg=PA11&lpg=PA11&dq=armies+of+the+macedonian+wars+foreword+2016&source=bl&ots=A_1lqX-BO3&sig=tKRMfq3qBXQBt-8VetL5WmgTEHM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiGwbmJ-MLMAhVlKMAKHTRmDz0Q6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=armies%20of%20the%20macedonian%20wars%20foreword%202016&f=false and the additional 70+ titles in thwe bibliography might be worth the prie of a copy alone... | |

Who is retailing them ? I'd only want a couple, Greek & persians and the Chariot one, got the others except the meso-america one (no interest). | |

I will investigate... (maybe a Neo-WRG successor state?) | |

It is print on demand from Wordery: go to www.wordery.com and search for title or author | |

WRG also stock them, cheaper on wordery though. Not all are on the list, the two Chariot ones aren't there, although you can get them on pdf (for free initially) from 'scribd'. Greek & Persian is there though. Depends what you want them for I suppose. https://www.scribd.com/doc/29853363/Armies-of-the-Ancient-Near-East https://www.scribd.com/doc/29390216/Armies-and-Enemies-of-Ancient-Egypt-and-Assyria-3200-612BC | |

I wouldn't bother wit the older chariot book. From the SoA forum there was the report (in 2015) that, "I have spoken to Nigel and his intent was to update AANE, as unlike the others it couldn't simply be reprinted. He hoped to have it done by Christmas, but he said there were an awful lot of drawings to do, and he wanted to extend the end date." Extend the date into the Achaemenid era apparently, so very interesting. Was mooted for release first quarter of 2016 so very late though... | |

Probably worth waiting for that then. The Persian stuff should be very useful. | |
