Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

This amazing book includes extensive detail on the history, uniforms, and insignia of nearly 1000 regiments that existed at the height of Britain's empire. It is illustrated with color photos of over 400 of the author's miniature soldiers. Though not new, this is sure to be a standard work for many years to come.

This review is from: Forces of the British Empire, 1914 (Hardcover)

I just got this book as a reference for my own toy soldier efforts (toyboxarmy.com), and I am blown away. I have dozens of reference books on military uniforms and such, but this book is in a league of its own. The author has made hundreds of his own models to give a wonderful visual of the multitudes of the forces concerned. You cannot go wrong with this book, even at full price, which I did NOT pay.
