Reviews
"Pros: Excellent, very accessible writing style; very good research; good balance of political, military and other content; great coverage of uniforms, equipment, and the fate of these units. Very nice color plates and maps. Cons: None really. If it were twice as long I would have enjoyed it twice as much." - AMPS, "Pros: Excellent, very accessible writing style; very good research; good balance of political, military and other content; great coverage of uniforms, equipment, and the fate of these units.
