Featured battle : Pellenberg
Part of The French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars
Date : 23 March 1793
This battle involved many of the same troops who had met at Neerwinden five days earlier. The French were again defeated, their raw ill-disciplined troops not holding up under fire. Six thousand had deserted between the two battles.

Boeing B52 Stratofortress, Owners Workshop Manual
Davies, Steve
Another excellent Haynes manual of one of those iconic pieces of technology we wish we could own! Detailed sections on it's design and combat history (primarily covering Vietnam and Iraq), it's anatomy, systems, engines and maintenance schedules. Some really detailed and annotated diagrams and the usual crop of photos from all angles. It also has a blow-by-blow account of a training mission from the point of view of the pilot, along with an unusual viewpoint from an air-gunner.
