A History of the Regiments and Uniforms of the British Army (Repost)

This book tells the story of the British Army as a fighting machine. Since its formation from the veterans of Cromwell's 'Model Army' and by the incorporation of the 'Household' troops, it has an unparalleled record of foreign campaigning. With every advance in weapons, horse, foot and guns have undergone ceaseless modifications. But despite new uniforms, new arms and new training, the courage and good humour of the British soldier remains constant.
