Ancient Warhorse

[philsidnell]

Has anyone read or is reading the new book 'Ancient Warhorse: Cavalry in Ancient World' by Philip Sidnell?
I have just finished reading the first chapter, where amongst other things author mentions 'the frozen soil of Ukraine" which makes me wonder where such area of Ukraine may be found?

:oops:
Er...well, I wrote it. Actually the subtitle is Cavalry in Ancient Warfare.

Thanks for pointing out the error above. That's a passage where I was referring to the Scythian tombs at Pazyryk (probably spelt wrong, I'm writing this off the top of my head). It should have been corrected to something like 'the frozen soil of the foothills of the Tienshin mountains, at the extreme eastern edge of the Scythian domain'.
I'll make sure it gets corrected for the reprint, along with a couple of other minor bloopers which I have spotted since publication. I'm sure yu will let me know if you find any more.

Have you read any further yet? What did you think? Any questions, suggestions, constructive criticisms? I Hope you found something to interest you in it.
