Andy Copestake
Andy Copestake has been interested in military history since he could read. Educated at Stand Grammar School Manchester and with a Degree from Teesside University, he has been a keen wargamer and military modeller since the age of 12. He spent much of the 1980s in a variety of jobs including the Civil Service until becoming the UK and European representative for US model manufacturer Old Glory in 1992, a job he has enjoyed ever since. Although a sometime contributor to Wargames magazines, this is his first book. He and his wife Carole currently live in County Durham.
