Just visited Brandywine Battlefield State Park near Chadds Ford, Pa.; small but pleasant site but the actual battle took place further away. Anyway, got a neat book publ. by Thomas Publications, Gettysburg, Pa. Author Erik Goldstein, nice soft back 8-1/2 x 11. Many good photos of Besses! at Flixton Hall. Has lots of historical information, an enjoyable read about the 23rd Royal Welsh Reg't. At only $19.95, it's a bargain. The Adair family of Flixton Hall preserved many weapons for generations, this book is a fun read about antiquarian provenancing, etc. Again good photos of Bess details, architecture and history. (Yes, they discuss the spelling of various versions of 'fusiliers!)
