Description: The 18th century was marked by a steady growth in central control of the British Army and a corresponding decrease in the influence enjoyed by individual commanding officers. The most obvious sign of this process was the increasing uniformity of the clothing issued each year to the soldiers. Nevertheless, as far as those who devised the Clothing Regulations were concerned, it was a constant, and invariably quite uphill struggle to enforce compliance. This volume takes a look at the infrantry uniforms of the mid-18th century British Army also covering the various auxiliary infrantry formations, such as the Militia, Volunteers, Marines and the troops of the East India Company.
