Uniforms of the American Revolution

by Peter E. Copeland

Thirty-one lively drawings reproduce with complete authenticity uniforms from the American Revolution — British, French, German, and American. Each regiment is described briefly, with complete instructions for accurately coloring the buckskin, fur, and feathered clothing of common soldiers as well as the distinctive hues of the officers' uniforms. Peter Copeland, historical artist and consultant, has reconstructed these uniforms from early descriptions and other source material, illustrating many for the first time.
