Hi CWreader. Welcome to this forum. Like yourself I also enjoy the subject. My own leanings are in favor of accounts written by the soldiers themselves as opposed to those by historians. The latter are useful, but my reading tends to be 2:1 in favor of the soldiers. It took me over 150 books before I even became comfortable but there's so many questions that remain unanswered.
