Digby Smith died yesterday. He was 89. Digby was one of the most prolific authors of our era. For many of us, his were the first Napoleonic books we bought. He, of course, is better known as Otto von Pivka and got his start writing for the Ospery Men-at-Arms Series.

A short biography from 2007 can be seen at:

He will be missed.
