Hello Mr. Morris. I just wanted you to know that I referenced your website in my blog. I also appreciated the thoroughness of your research and relied on your information extensively while writing my alternate history, young adult novel. Thank you.

For all who have contacted me off site concerning battlefield ghosts.
My website title "Anomalies"does not include sprits other than the ones found in a bottle!

Bravo on an excellent website on the Franco-Prussian War. It helped me very much in my research paper. Don't worry, I cited you ass a source and credited where due.

Excellent overview of the Battle of Solferino, Graham. I must go there sometime. Maybe I should start with Magenta which is not too far from where I live.
Your web-page is a very enjoyable read too.

I visited your site for the first time today, and enjoyed it very much.
Some years ago I crossed Belgium on a coach, and realized that the motorway crossed the battlefield of Fontenoy. After looking at my 18th century maps (in books) today, i googled 'Fontenoy battlefield' to see whether anyone had written a guide to the area. Thus I found your website.
With a lifelong interest in military history, I myself have visited European battlefields where British troops fought (eg Warburg, Minden, Wilhelmstahl, Emsdorf, Vellinghausen).
I am a member of The Battlefields Trust, which aims to preserve historic battlefields from modern development, like that which has desecrated the Fontenoy battlefield.

Excellent site. I especially enjoyed reading about The Risorgimento and Solferino.
Would be interested in what sources you have for Solferino.

Very interesting article on Pickett's charge, and the post-battle repercussions. I do wonder if maybe in his report Geo. Pickett might have used rather imtemperate language or arguments, hence Lee's wanting a rewrite. Though it is true that Pickett never forgave Lee (which leads one to think after all that maybe there were criticisms of his Commanding General); it seems the feeling was somewhat reciprocated subsequently. Freeman (in his 3-volume biography of Lee) mentions that Lee effectively ordered Pickett, some time I think in 1864 or early '65, to leave the Army of Northern Virginia. When he saw Pickett later on Lee was heard to murmur 'I thought you (he?) was no longer with this army.'
It seems clear that at some time after Gettysburg, Lee developed at least strong suspicions about Pickett's capacity for command.
Anyway, just some extra fuel to throw onto the fires of conjecture... ;-)

Excellent reading. I intend to visit the Malplaquet battlefied soon. A few (repeated) misspellings here and there: to my knowledge, Louis XIV was never spelt "Louise"...
