Reader Reviews
This review is from: Collector's Illustrated Encyclopedia of the American Revolution (Paperback)
This is a CLASSIC reference book on Revolutionary War artifacts! This one first came out around the time of the bicentennial, and has set the standard from day one. With photographs of original (and in some cases, excavated) and reproduction equipment, this book is a gold mine of information. Where photographs are not available, black and white line drawings by George Woodbridge fill the gap. Woodbridge is one of the BEST illustrators of military subject matter. He captures the details that matter. Members of the Brigade of the American Revolution were used to further display everyday items used by 18th century soldiers. Museum curators, reenactors, collectors, illustrators and makers of reproduction equipment MUST HAVE THIS BOOK on their shelves. My only criticism ? Color photos and exact measurements would have been nice. ...
