[edit] Reference book
I have found "The Boys Guide to the Historical Adventures of G.A. Henty" by William Potter, ISBN: 1-929241-15-1, to be very helpful. --Wulf 18:11, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Dates and children
The following quote is an exerpt from the article: "Shortly before resigning from the army as a captain in 1859 he married Elizabeth Finucane. The couple had four children. Elizabeth died in 1865 after a long illness."
Does this article mean to say that the duration of the marriage was 6 years and during this six-year period Elizabeth Henty gave birth to four children and suffered from a lengthy and terminal illness? Bigturtle 04:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Military Campaigns - Clarification
Several of the wars named in this article have antiquated titles; hence, their official titles should be substituted at a later date. For example, the Austro-Italian War is commonly termed the Austro-Prussian War. The Carlist Rebellion is now termed "The Glorious Revolution" (1868) of Spain. The Ashanti Wars is possibly a eurocentric title and the Turco-Siberian War needs a stub. -- Flask 10:12, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] ISBN
Please avoid add the Category:ISBN needed category to this article. ISBN was invented in 1966. Any works printed, and are original, before this date will not have an ISBN number. G. A. Henty certainly won't have an ISBN number! Kilo-Lima|(talk) 13:02, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
