Passionate about history, he became interested in eighteenth century history after reading Waddington's book on the Seven Years War. Noting the absence of exhaustive documentation on the French army during this war, he endeavoured to put together the pieces of this puzzle. He is also passionate about 3D modelling and printing historical models and figurines. He participates in the collaborative project on the Seven Years War initiated by Richard Couture: www.kronoskaf.com 64 colour illustrations
