By John P. Langellier, 2001. Cloth bound with dust jacket, 9” x 12”, 328 pages. Light wear, good condition.

In this follow-up volume, the development of an altogether new uniform for troops of the United States Army, a few years after the Civil War, has never been told so well or so comprehensively. Here Langellier continues the story of the evolution of American army uniforms during a critical period that saw experimentation and innovation finally surmount conservatism to produce some of the more practically functional and aesthetically appealing martial clothing in American history.

The breadth of Langellier’s research, coupled with his years of accumulated expertise in the study of historical army uniforms, is evident throughout, and together make this book the most thorough and precise accounting the topic has ever received.  [jet][ph:L]
