Books - seem to have purchased a number of them recently - when will I get the chance to actually read them?

DBA 'Missing' 15mm Armies - the annual availability check has been carried out with somewhat predictable results: 21 - 11 - 29 - 62
Under Construction by me are:
Book 1 - Assyrians
Book 2 - Armenians & Jewish
Book 3 - Slav, Spanish & Norse-Irish
Book 4 - French, Maori, Scots Common, Islamic Persian, Jalayrid, Portuguese & Spanish)
I have plenty more in the unpainted lead mountain but, for the time being, I am ignoring armies that Ian already has.
