I saw that NMP have an easter sale on, 20% off everything. I received an email which contained a sample of their Naval offerings. I'm tempted by some of them I have to admit.

Luckily I have an address in the UK so postage cost isn't a problem for me. However those none UK residents may find the postage a bit ... high, though not as high as for the SoG boxed set.

These books look interesting, if anyone has them, or knows of them maybe they could say if they're worth the investment.
