Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Chris: I found a few copies online but a bit pricey though. Only in paperback.

I totally forgot about that mate. I remember that you had offered to give me one last year but when i got Herr Regeniters' reply i was astonished to see that he got into the trouble of photo copying his entire book for me. And not only that but he also wrote several notes next to maps and photos of the book. I am very thankful for his kindness.

Chris: You're right about that. I'd like to pick up a copy. Right now the cheapest I have found is $35.
Luke
I would buy it at that price Luke.
Here is my latest reply from Max Zastrow.
He returned my photos and included some of his own. He was even so generous to send me his book as well.
He has a problem with his hand so his friend and kamerad Christian Habisohn wrote the letter on his behalf.
