On May fifth Bernard Cornwell's non fiction Waterloo: The History of Four Days, Three Armies, and Three Battles will be released. The Kindle price will be $17.99. A little pricey, but I am probably going to get it.

My favorite Cornwell book is Azincourt. If you have not read it you are missing a really top notch story. The book is a standalone and is not part of any series.

Don't know the Agincourt one, and don't have it. But have all the Sharpe's through 24, the three Grail Quest, and the three Warlord. Will have to look for a good deal on the Agincourt one, or maybe the BC Library has it? Not going to pay >$11 for it.
