I Expected MoreBy A CustomerAlthough it appears to contain some good information; one's confidence in its accuracy is underminded by a lot of incorrect information. Some of the statements made are even contradicted by the photographs in the book. A very lengthy section describing the cap badges of the British Army could have been better done with pictures. On the plus side; the colour illustrations were great. On the whole I expected more of this book.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Good OverviewBy Mark R HenryFor a easy to read overview of the organization; equipt and uniforms of the British Army of WW1; this book is quite good. It has many interesting photos but the artwork plates are of only average quality. Some interesting indexes in the back. For the price; I was hoping for a bit more. I would buy one of the Osprey WW1 titles first but Bull's book is a good second.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Not worth the priceBy danny boyThis book gives a general overview of the British army WWI uniforms and equipment. However; the coverage and depth is patchy and leaves a lot unanswered. The colour illustrations are not great and overall; it is not worth the asking price. Other similar and cheaper books by Osprey would be a better bet for your money.
