Chris Ash grew up in the Shetland Isles and studied at Aberdeen University. After a brief and undistinguished dalliance with the British Army (Lovat Scouts and Gordon Highlanders), he drove his Land Rover to South Africa and decided to stay. Since then, he has worked in oil and mineral exploration all over Africa and the Middle East. His interest in South African history was sparked by watching Zulu and Breaker Morant as a child, ameliorated by countless drunken arguments over the years. He is a regular speaker on the remarkable life of Dr Leander Starr Jameson, the subject of his first book, The If Man. Away from work and history, Ash enjoys cricket, rugby, upsetting the politically-correct, J&B and messing about in Landies. He is married to the long-suffering Stefanie and commutes between Johannesburg and Abidjan.
... for the wargamer there are also several excellent descriptions
of smaller actions that could be excellent for skirmishing.
