On the Passing of Sir John Keegan (15 May 1934 – 2 August 2012)

John Keegan

Renowned military historian, John Keegan has passed away.  A colleague of his, Mr. Con Coughlin of the London Telegraph, has published a tribute.

I was just getting to know Mr. Keegan --- reading recently his Six Armies at Normandy and The Face of Battle.  Through these, I am finding out that he was a man very much worth knowing.
