new Osprey series? - richsc - 05-09-2001
I was looking through Borders and saw some Osprey books with green covers by Mark Healy; is this a new series? <p></p><i></i>

Green covers? All I got was "No Picture of this Title" or something like that. I surfed over to www.osprey-publishing.co.uk/, looked in the "What's New" section and found a "Battle of Adrianople" that has recently been released. I have most all of their Roman books, so I dont think they have a new series that includes the Roman military or I would know about it.<br>

Could this be one of the Osprey trade editions? They have been issuing reeditions of their regular titles, comprising either a single or a combination of earlier Men-At-Arms, Elite and Campaign books, with new covers and titles for some time (eg Legions of the north really being a reissue of their previous MAA Roman army title). This is a regular source for false alarms over supposedly new Osprey books on Roman warfare.<br>

One of the books was on the Egyptian Pharoah and egyptian military. I'll go back and write the titles down next week when I get the chance. <p>Richard<br>

I have checked in the booklet with Osprey titles for january to june 2001. The books with green covers are trade editions of the books earlier published in the ELite series.<br>
