I did a search on the Internet to find out how much a second-hand copy would cost ... and any that were on sale were well outside my price range.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-35306171253922255472014-02-11T11:42:48.803+00:002014-02-11T11:42:48.803+00:00Terrific post, I shall look for that book.

A very interesting war with some epic swings of fortune. I shall look for that film on YT.Mad Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410143683610813671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-61825080085227808692014-02-10T16:13:33.003+00:002014-02-10T16:13:33.003+00:00Ross Mac,

The sight of all that cavalry and FT-17 tanks was worth the cost of the DVD alone.<br /><br />I hope that you can get a copy of the film. If not, a full copy is available on YouTube.<br /><br />I did not realise that there was a board game with the same title as the book ... but now I do, I will try to get a copy.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-88921504506224113662014-02-10T15:45:34.340+00:002014-02-10T15:45:34.340+00:00Looks like a great movie.

I need to figure out if wr have a dvd player tbat can handle the format or find an american format version.<br /><br />I find the Soviet Polish war more interesting for a vareity of reasons not to mention that the White Eagle Red Star board wargame was my introduction to the period.Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.com
