We bring you a book dedicated to the study of the Royal Navy uniforms during the 17th and 18th century.  It is a rich subject which we wanted to present in all its vastness.  This very important work is based solely from archival sources; both written and iconographic.
Every Navy Corp is the subject of a separate chapter following a chronological order.  The introduction of each chapter depicts the history of the particular Navy Corp studied, followed by the transcript of the appropriate archival sources; including the pictorial reproduction from the time period.We have included a total of 51 plates and commentary representing 230 figures. The book ends with a study of the armament, the equipment; all of which required some one hundred sketches and drawings, as well as the reproduction of a number of collection pieces.
Our desire is to present an exceptional subject reflected thru this documentation.
