Who won Waterloo?

Has anyone else read this new and interesting book? It is written by Barry von Danzig and basicially challenges the contra-Siborne views offered by Peter Hofschroer in Wellington's smallest victory et al.
One of the nicest things about it is his use of dozens of pictures from a large wargaming table which shows the various incidents(and in various versions) of the battle.
At £24.95 in hardback it is not cheap but I found it a very good read even if I could not agree with all of Mr vD's conclusions.
He has an online debate and voting forum open only to purchaser's of the book!

Great idea!
