Winston Ramsey — Founder of After the Battle and Editor-in-Chief
The value of After the Battle publications to
historians, students and the general reader is that they provide a truly unique
line of research. The extensive, carefully selected and beautifully printed
illustrations are never less than top quality and are keyed to the fastidious
and methodical research for which ATB is famous. I buy everything they publish;
they never let you down.
LEN DEIGHTON, LONDON
Having read your magazine since the
start in August 1973, I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate you
on your 100th issue. I look forward to the next 100 issues!
NICK, RICHMOND
Dear Sirs: The three packages have arrived in
excellent condition and the contents are perfect. I would like to thank those
responsible for the careful packaging and shipping. It is nice to know that some
perfectionists still exist!
GENE GALL, USA
Not only was I amazed about the many details and the
thoroughness of your story, it was also presented professionally.
MANFRED WEISE, GERMANY
Just a short note to congratulate you on your fine
publication, After the Battle. Of all the military magazines and periodicals
that I read, yours is by far the most interesting and most professional. Keep up
the good work! I look forward to every issue.
GEORGE M. BLACK, USA
As someone who has been professionally involved in
printing, publishing and historical research for the past 16 years, I'd like to
express my appreciation and thanks for the astonishing achievements of the After
the Battle team. The standards you have set are unprecedented and your
contribution to the recorded history of WW2 unrivalled. But then you already
know that, don't you?
N. TREVENA, CORNWALL
As a long time subscriber to your outstanding
magazine (from the very first issue) I would like to take this opportunity to
extend warm congratulations for each and every issue which is awaited with
anticipation and read avidly from cover to cover.
W. A. HASKELL, GERMANY
I have been an avid reader of your
magazine for the last 20 years. In that time I have been consistently impressed
with the quality and objectiveness of your research. Your books are just as
excellent. They make you feel as if you are actually there — nothing can
surpass your publications.
PETER IMBERGER, MELBOURNE
Turning the pages of your books is like
turning back the days and years to remember as if it were yesterday.
P. D. DAWE, Ex RAFVR
How you have done it, I have often
wondered! It is outstanding that you have come this far, maintaining a standard
that is the definitive of its subject. History has been served beyond
expectation.
GERALD MANSFIELD, BEM, Ex GUARDS ARMOURED DIVISION
May I say that I think your story on the
making of the film [A Bridge Too Far] is quite excellent. I am amazed at how
much detail you have managed to unearth.
MAJOR-GENERAL R. E. URQUHART, CB, DSO
The article on Shepton Mallet is
absolutely fascinating and I will be making it widely known to staff.
THE GOVERNOR, H.M. PRISON CORNHILL
If an Australian reader of mixed
British-German parentage may state what he's found the most pleasing in your
publications, it is the many instances of reconcilliation between former enemies
that your storylines and research have brought forth. To me, such things are the
'icing on the cake'.
JOHN ROACH, NEW SOUTH WALES
The latest After the Battle is excellent
so much so it nearly caused a divorce at our house. You see I could not put it
down. I am most grateful to you for publishing them.
BRIAN WALKER
Through these magazines I have had a
much greater insight and enjoyment from our holiday. Thanks again for all the
pleasure and interest you have given me through the magazine, especially being a
'war baby'.
PETER ABEL, LEEDS
I look forward to each issue and am
usually 'lost' in it for a day. I am sure that long after we are long gone they
will use it all as a reference work.
S. FENNELL, SUFFOLK
The tremendous search for accuracy in
After the Battle is outstanding, particularly when so much effort is devoted to
relating each account to the people who were involved.
R. P. ITTER, SWINDON
The one thing I find most
interesting about After the Battle is the analytical detective work you
undertake. The facts themselves are always of interest but the technique you and
your colleagues adopt, I find most absorbing.
J. F. AYLARD, HERTFORDSHIRE
As an ex-patriate Englishman who spent
his childhood in England during the war years I am deeply interested in the
history of the Second World War and each issue never fails to fascinate and
intrigue me.
MARK KENYON, AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND
Just to say that I think After the
Battle and associated books are the best military history publications
available.
J. WOOD, LEEDS
Without exception I have found the
articles interesting and informative and have been fascinated by many of the
'then and now' photographs. The dedicated research that goes into each subject
is most impressive.
R. S. BARWISE, BRISTOL
Thank you for these fine books and
congratulations on producing such a teriffic magazine.
