Featured battle : Le Cateau
Part of The French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars
Date : 29 March 1794
Only 7,000 Austrians came into the action but there were almost double the number available nearby. Even at the 'disadvantage' of two to one against the Austrians still won the day.

British Aircraft Carriers
David Hobbs
A wealth of knowledge presented in a most readable form for everyone from the novice to the initiated. Encyclopedic in scope it may be dipped into at any point but I found in reading cover to cover the fascinating story went from airships to future carriers. All aspects, design, development and service are dealt with. There are very many photographs, lots from the author's own collection, plus drawings and plans. An unusual but welcome feature are the fold out copies of Admiralty drawings which are in the middle of the book.
At £45 this is not a cheap book, but a Rolls Royce is not a cheap car, and this is a Rolls Royce of a book.
