There aren't any books on my site that I personally don't have in my library, and ones that I would personally recommend. I have NEVER bought a book based on the remarks of some high brow reviewer. I decide to buy books because I like them. Needless to say, I LIKE this book, which has got crisp photos of soldiers, which show rich detail. I spent hours looked at the variety of chevrons, trousers, and soldier added modifications. This is also available AUTOGRAPHED by the author who is a fellow reenactor!!
