This week Jonathan is joined by the esteemed Henry Hyde. Henry is the best-selling author of Wargaming Campaigns (affiliate link) and The Wargaming Compendium (affiliate link) books. Many consider The Wargaming Compendium to be the definitive wargaming tome of our generation.
Jonathan and Henry discuss why Henry decided to take on this topic when there are other books already on the topic. They talk about some of the other books that discuss wargaming campaigns. Some of the books include Featherstone’s War Game Campaigns; The War Game by Charles Grant; The Sole Wargaming Guide by Precis Intermedia; and Henry’s own Wargaming Compendium.
Henry talks about how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the writing of the book and what his process for writing was like.
