How Are The Walsh/Kimmage Books?

Walsh's Lance to Landis book is excellent. The research is sound and, five years later, it all turned out to be true, if somewhat incomplete.

If I'd read this book when it was first published, I wouldn't have waited for the reasoned decision.

Any good? Worth the $$$?

New or old? Well, there is no new Kimmage book. The first of the new Walsh's - Seven Deadly Sins - is three quarters good but goes to hell on a handcart in the final sections, which simply don't fit the book. As for the Sky book - oh dear. He's back to be being the cheer-leading fan with a typewriter.
