I recently saw a review of one of the Osprey books I have done recently. I enjoy writing these as they are quite tightly focussed with a strict structural guideline. It’s a bit of a challenge fitting everything into the necessary spaces. Plus, Osprey are a fantastic publishing company to work with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, I did take issue with one point somebody was trying to make. There is a section called ‘Further Reading’ at the end of each book. From this list of books the reviewer noted that I obviously use no primary sources in my writing of this ‘booklet’. Not true. This section is called ‘Further Reading<\/strong>‘, not, ‘Bibliography and Sources<\/strong>‘. It is a suggestion for other books that reflect on the same subject. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Not sure why it annoyed me so much, but it did. I work hard at researching these books and the idea that I just stole a lot of second hand ideas sticks in my craw \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I recently saw a review of one of the Osprey books I have done recently.
