Favorite Authors
Hello everyone, I recently joined and I would like to weigh in on favorite reference authors as well.
Ian Hogg - Can't beat him for his numerous artillery books, I also enjoyed "Fortress".
S. Zaloga - must surely be one of the experts on tanks, especially Soviet tanks. He did a very nice listing of the equipment at the Kubinka armor museum which will be a must take along if I ever go there........
Heinz Nowarra & Uwe Feist - I put them together because they sometimes worked together on their many German tank reference books. Feist's art work is very good.
Bruce Quarrie - Liked his pictorial/reference books.
George Forty - Outstanding books on US and German tanks. I'm sure a certain somebody loved the Pershing vs Tiger accounts.

Bruce Quarrie?????
Bruce Quarrie used to write an excellent wargamers column in Military Modelling. Using any of his books (I have several!!) as a reference would have been enough to make Mother Theresa swear profusely!!!
