✦ Synopsis


For the early years of the American War of Independence, George WashingtonΠ²Π‚β„’s troops were clothed in a variety of uniforms from various sources. With the receipt in late 1778 of over 25,000 uniforms imported from France, much of the Continental army was uniformly clothed in blue or brown coats faced with red. This study by Marko Zlatich focuses on the systems used by state and Continental authorities to procure clothing materials from this point onwards, the quantities they obtained and the specifications of the uniforms themselves. Eight colour plates by the talented Bill Younghusband and a plethora of black and white photographs and illustrations usefully support the authorΠ²Π‚β„’s detailed text. Men-at-Arms 273, 285, 289, 290 and 292 are also available in a single volume special edition as Π²Π‚Β˜Soldiers of the Revolutionary WarΠ²Π‚β„’.
