I have purchased four books on the Revolution from either Ebay or Amazon. My purpose was to locate more descriptions of the uniforms worn during the War. One, I got on Ebay for a bid of $0.99 plus under $6 for Shipping. All were under $10 including Shipping.
The first Review is of the one that I considered the Best.
Soldiers of the Revolutionary War by Stuart Reid and Marko Zlatich; 240pages.
Best book. Virtually the entire book covers the uniforms in detail both in pictures and in descriptions. There are 32 Plates of excellently painted pictures of Units on both sides of the War. In addition to the Plates there is an enormous amount of both black and white drawings. There are pictures from museum Collections around the Country. Included are dispatches from leaders both in the military and in the civilian governments of both the state and the national level when it pertained to equipping the troops with uniforms. Cost was abt. $8.00
