This book will be of great use to anyone interested in the 18th Century British Army as well as illustrators and others who need detailed information in one convenient source., ...massively color illustrated literary horn of plenty... I can only hope that a second volume detailing 1784-1914 will be forthcoming!, This excellent guide illustrates and identifies the different uniforms of the numbered regiments of cavalry and infantry within the British Army during 1751, 1768 and the end of the War of Independence in 1783... This is a superb reference work, full of clearly researched details. The color illustrations for every numbered regiment along with the explanatory text for regimental changes, plus the descriptions of how and why the equipment and uniforms were changing overall make this a go-to reference. For anyone interested in the British Army during the period from 1751 to 1783, this is a reference book worth owning. One look at this book shows how it leaves all other uniform books in the dust. Use this book to understand how a British military ancestor would have been dressed and equipped. As a reference resource it will be of value to family and military historians, re-enactors, figure painters, and wargamers., ...sure to become an indispensable tool for any hobbyist seeking to identify or replicate period uniforms for military miniatures

Synopsis
British Army Uniforms identifies the uniforms of each regiment of cavalry and infantry from 1751 to 1783, including those worn during the Seven Years' War and the American War of Independence. This lavishly illustrated book shows how the cut and colouring of the uniforms of the officers, the NCOs and the private soldiers changed over the course of more than thirty years. The survey is divided into four parts. Part one looks at the commonalities of cavalry uniforms and focuses on the uniforms that were appropriate to each regiment. Headwear and horse furniture are also considered. Part two contains a wealth of full-colour plates detailing the uniforms of the Household Cavalry, the Heavy Cavalry and Light Cavalry. Parts three and four cover infantry uniforms, including those of the regiments of Foot Guards, Infantry of the Line, Fusiliers and Highland regiments. Carl Franklin's remarkable book will be an essential reference work for readers who have a special interest in the British Army of the eighteenth century. Book jacket., Based on contemporary records and paintings, this book identifies each cavalry and infantry regiment and illustrates changes in uniforms, their facing colors and the nature and shape of lace worn by officers, NCOs and private soldiers from 1751 to 1783. Regiments that served in the American War of Independence are noted and the book includes more than 200 full-color plates of uniforms and distinctions. Divided into four sections, it not only details the cavalry and infantry uniforms of the period but also the tartans of the Highland regiments, some of which were short-lived, and the distinction of the Guards' regiments.
