Reader's note

The history of military uniform is (perhaps fortunately) much shorter than the history of warfare. Men have been fighting in more or less organized bodies since (and perhaps before) they became men. They have worn uniforms, in the proper sense, only for just under three hundred years. It is therefore possible to deal with the subject within the limits of a brief survey, on the condition the minutiae of regimental differences are resolutely ignored. The different colours of the facings, the different spacing of the buttons on the uniforms of two separate regiments of foot guards in the second half of the eighteenth century - these are matters which can (and must) be left to specialists, if only for the reason that their adequate discussion would require not only one volume but a hundred. This unique Penguin book would make an interesting read for anyone who has an interest in history, the military and the uniform meanings.
