Historians, map makers, and even the occasional celebrity joined us at the fabulous ‘We Have Ways’ Fest to help define our next Second World War fabric battlefield maps.
We Have Ways
Where better than the We Have Ways Fest to launch our latest WW2 collection? Born of the podcast featuring Comedian, Al Murray, and Historian and WW2 boffin, James Holland, the festival is small yet brilliantly formed of talks, live demos, music and the odd map.
Celebrities sharing their fascination for this bygone era at the country’s top WW2 festival included Dermot O’Leary (Radio2, X Factor), Charlie Higson (Fast Show) and James May (Top Gear).
Define our next Battlefield Map
Battlefield Map Give Away
Who better to define our next battlefield map? Over the weekend hundreds of the country’s most ardent WW2 addicts pored over our latest 1940’s collection of US and UK military maps.
