"as complete a guide to the hobby of wargaming as you can currently
get. If you have a friend or relative who wants to get into this
hobby or has only just got into it then buy them this book for
Christmas, their birthday or Easter... like having a seasoned
wargamer at your elbow guiding you along the way....if you are like
me a wargamer of some decades of experience then buy this book. It
will remind you why you got into the hobby in the first place,
bring back some very vivid memories of "the early days" and make
you look at the hobby afresh. .... yes I really, really like this
book and make no apologies for laying it on with a trowel! Don't
waste anymore time and get this book into your life now!"-- "The
Wargamer"
"graphic arts extravaganza is enhanced by lively and engaging text
that clearly explains things with a feel for flair and a good sense
of humor. ..ranks as a great addition to the pastime's
lore...comprehensive and entertaining...highly recommended to both
more experienced tabletop generals and beginners."-- "Toy Solder &
Model Figure"
"I highly recommend this 519-page book to ANYONE interested in
miniature wargaming. The title of The Wargaming Compendium is at
least an understatement as this one volume gives the prospective
gamer an insight to the beginning of this hobby that will only grow
stronger with time. Also, grab this fascinating book while you can,
as Wargaming Books, such as this, will sell out quickly and become
a collectors editions before you know it. Get it while it's HOT."--
