Chinese Warlord Armies 1911-30 Tapa blanda - 2010

"The captivating text of this book details, illustrates and studies the great 'warlords' of the 20th century. It is about the organization of the ‘warlord’ forces and their acquired weaponry much from the west, plus the latest French air force bombers. The book is enhanced with many rare photographs and accurate uniform plates beautifully illustrated by Stephen Walsh." -www.mataka.org (November 2010)

"As with all Men-At-Arms titles, this one provides a background to the various campaigns, has a look at how the conflicts progressed and were resolved, then takes a closer look at how these men performed during the various campaigns. As usual, their uniforms and other accoutrements are the main focus of the photos  in the book. This is all enhanced more by the superbly done uniform illustrations of Stephen Walsh." - Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness (September 2010) 

"Show[s] all the hallmarks of what makes Osprey unique. Solid, engaging writing, with overviews of the period that let you get a grasp of the history while focusing on military units and what made them interesting." -Greater Games Industry (Spring 2011)
