A catastrophic and ruinous civil war raged across the fledgling United States between 1861 and 1865. The conflict pitted brother against brother, father against son and friend against friend. This book minutely examines the uniforms and equipment of the Confederacy, a patchwork of states, comprising of the southern aristocracy, farm hands and state militiamen. Often hopelessly outnumbered, they held back the inevitable tide of blue of the Union for four years. This book not only examines the uniforms, but also the equipment, weapons, battle flags, tactics and organization of the Confederate armies. Indispensable for military historians, collectors, wargamers and re-enactors. AUTHOR: Jonathan Sutherland is a specialist writer on military strategy and tactics and has had over eighty books published. 100 colour photos Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Another important aspect is that all re-enactors are British. Apparently, there are a thousand re-enactors per side living across the channel who fight to preserve the union or their "rats". An advantage of using British specimens is fewer plus-sized soldiers (the age distortion remains). The text is usually historically correct. The inclusion of a historically uncertain "black Confederate" was, in my view, a bad decision. Overall, highly recommended. ( )
