This is a great book and a must have if you are interested in late 17th early 18thc uniforms and flags. To give you some background to this book Mark Allen the author and artist of this work started researching this period in the late 80s inspired by the tercentenaries and the new wargames figures out and published the results in a series of articles in the magazine Wargames Illustrated. These articles became highly prized with colour photocopies circulating among enthusiasts. Over time people have continued to enjoy the articles so Helion decided to reprint them with extra text and more research. There is something like 44 pages of colour artwork and this is only volume 1. So if you are interested in the War of the Grand Alliance and later into the age of Marlborough this is the book for you. This volume covers the Dutch English and French.
