Fat chance. Since when does Osprey do civilian stuff? :roll:

But I noticed that the poll was also won by a RAT-supported request for 'the battle of Mons Graupius'. Now, thát would be a volume I'd like to read.

If anyone wants, I could write a volume about the 'battle of Mons Badonis'... :wink:

Quote:I wonder if a book such as "Hollywood Roman Army Guide" would stand a better chance with an university publishing house. Perhaps they receive a "special deal" being a primarily academic rather than commercial enterprise.
Quite possible. Rights holders often have different rates for profit and non-profit publications...
