    Book review When Yer Number's Up by Grant Patterson

    I recently met the author of a novel written about Canadianicon soldiers who landed on Juneau beach. He graciously gave me a copy and asked for my feedback. I am a Canadian military history junkie and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this read.
    The author has followed the exploits of this group of soldiers right through to the liberation of Holland and the defeat of Nazi Germanyicon. I found it a very entertaining read. It is a novel, and therefore fictional to a large degree. But in the style of George MacDonald Fraser (author of the Flashman papers) this story involves real WW2 vets and real battles that they fought in.
    Below are pictures of the book covers.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
