Eagle in the Snow is a great book I must admit.

Not a fan of McDonald Fraser myself, and the only Cornwalls I really enjoyed were his 100 years war ones.

He writes some great books
Yeah, loved his Caesar and Genghis series. He’s started writing fantasy novels now. They’re also pretty good

What happened with those - did the Trades Descriptions people take them to court in the end?

Had my three choices but now wish I had said the Ronald Welch Carey series, especially For the King, Knight Crusader, and Captain of Dragoons.
