Battles with Model Tanks

150pp, some in-text black and white illustrations. Pictorial laminated light card covers. 8vo. Slightly sun-faded rear, light wear to covers. Top text block edge foxing, all edges tanning. Pages ageing. Otherwise, internally, neat, clean and tight. This copy from the library of the late George R P Gush. Gush was head of history at West Kent College but is perhaps better remembered as a key contributor to the development of early wargaming, and as an active wargamer especially in Renaissance wargames. His Renaissance Armies (1975) has become a classic work on the topic. He founded the Tunbridge Wells Wargames Society in the late 1960s, remaining its chairman until 2007. A regular contributor to various wargaming and modelling magazines, he authored with Andrew Finch A Guide to Wargaming (1980) and the well-regarded Wargames Rules for Fifteenth to Seventeenth Centuries.
