The Best Book EVER!!!!

Posted by Waterloo on 10 Nov 2008, 21:27

So I was finally able to buy The Waterloo Companion by Mark Adkin off Amazon.ca.

I just got it in the mail this morning and I can't put it down.
Yes it is dense in terms of writing, but I love this book.
I am a visual learner and I really like the photos with the troop placements imposed over top.

I really love this book.

Just what to know what you guys have thought of the book. What areas do you like. What's your feedback and reviews.

Just curious???

Colin :shock: :-D

Hi Colin,
At last, you've got it. Congratulations!!
It is a marvellous book.
Several years ago I visisted the Waterloo battlefield. And I took this book upto the Lion Mound. The view was excatly as on page 124-125. I could overlook it all. It was worth to carry it up all 226 steps.
I still use it as my key reference book.
