Hi all,
as some of you may have gathered by now, I am a commissioning editor specialising in Ancient Warfare (although I do also commission a bit of other military history). As a bit of market research I just thought I would ask you all what sort of books you would like to see published. I'm just talking non-fiction here. It's no good asking for something way too specific either, like rivet design from 75-80AD for example, but if there are periods, battles, campaigns, armies or generals which you think are neglected or ripe for reappraisal, then I'd like to hear your ideas.
I can't promise anything, but many heads are better than one and it gives you a chance to influence what gets into print.
thanks
Phil Sidnell
