3.0 out of 5 stars unbelievable, June 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I suspect that the tour of the thirty years war is reasonably accurate. I know little of that war. The writing is nice, what bothers me is that the story is so ludicrous. A general riding along stops to talk to a boy playing soldier, recruits him to his staff, the boy then proceeds to win the war by himself with only the aide of his servant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of "Won by the Sword", February 25, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is one of G.A. Hemty's books, and such being the case, a remarkably classic tale. By the time one completes it, one is bound to be well nigh unable to set it down.
