I've just discovered that my book Roman Legionary, 58 BC - AD 69 (Osprey 2003) is (or was) available in a French translation. Does anyone has a copy of Le Légionnaire Romain - de 58 av. J.C. à 69 apr. J.C. (Delprado 2004)? If so, I'd be grateful to know what the book's ISBN is.
Many thanks.

I have that book i think the isbn is 1841766003
"The Kaiser knows the Munsters,
by the Shamrock on their caps,
And the famous Bengal Tiger, ever ready for a scrap,
And all his big battalions, Prussian Guards and grenadiers,
Fear to face the flashing bayonets of the Munster Fusiliers."

Thanks for the info. It's odd that the ISBN for the French edition isn't listed online.
Cheers,
R

Hello
The french ISBN is : 2-84349-178-9
I have found this book in a flea market . Today it's very difficult to find this sort of book, it was an exceptionnal issue who was published in 2004 by "Delprado Editeurs" .

I'm surprised that the publishers didn't send you any complimentary copies!

Yep, Osprey reprinted Michael Simkins works in several different versions, never sent him a note, or a copy, let alone money.
The first time he knew of some of them was when I showed him copies. There is a reason that Osprey books are cheap.
I still buy them, but I wouldn't want to write or draw for them. lol (not that they would ask).

It's also available in Greek!
