19788522bdNew York: Charles Scribner’s Sons 1978. Quarto black cloth & gray boards hardcover red letters bottom edge red 602 pp. Fine in a Fine mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: Now available in one volume for the first time the highly acclaimed American Military Equipage 1851 - 1872 is a handsomely illustrated solidly researched reference work that describes what the American soldier sailor and marine wore and carried during a signal period in U. S. History. Any study of the military dress and equipment of the Civil War must necessarily include the ten years prior to the conflict since it was in those years that the basic styles evolved as well as the several years following the war when the vast stocks of clothing and accouterments on hand were still being worn. Yet the period 1851 - 1872 has a validity all its own and witnessed trends in dress and armament quite distinct from the years on either side; its terminal dates are important signposts in the history of American military uniform arms and equipment -- far more so than the beginning and end of the Civil War itself.
