I have just been told that Donald Featherstone, the author of Captain Carey's Blunder, has died at the age of 95 years.

Donald was considered by many to have been the father of modern wargaming. As well as that he was an accomplished military historian. He was a prolific writer and wrote around seventy books, many of which covered the Victorian period.

Go well Donald.
