4.0 out of 5 stars
Bland but filling
Though a bit bland for an Osprey book the books of this series Stuart Reid has produced are insightful for those interested in the troops of this period. My only complaint being that they do not cover the American colonial formations of this period or the various German troops Britain also employed

Good but Dry
This book gives information on British calvery and artilllery units from about 1740 to 1790. It deals with troops in the seven years war, India, American revolotion, and Jacobite rebelions. The pictures and illustrations are good. The info is good and accurate. One problem is the writing is very dry. I've read many Osprey books but this is the dullest. I also wish...

This review is from: King George's Army 1740-93 (2) (Men-at-Arms) (Paperback)
As with most Osprey books, the only thing this one lacks is more pages. It is well laid out and has very good illustrations. Not the do all be all of books on this subject, but a very good reference. I recommend it for modelers and researchers.

I also wish the author had given information on Loyalists units in America.
