If you've seen the "SHARPE" films but want to know what the British Riflemen were REALLY ALL ABOUT, this is the book to get.This work traces the history, clothing and equipment of the sharpshooters of England's army. Contrary to popular belief, the American "Dirty Shirts" were NOT the FIRST rifle armed soldiers.Much emphasis is placed on both the 60th and the 95th. There are numerous period paintings, sketches and actual equipment shown. You'll meet such legendary officers such as "Coote" Manningham and "Black Bob" Crawford. The exploits of rifleman Tom Plunkett are also covered.Interspaced between the pages are photos of reenactors in period uniform, showing what these troops looked like in the field. The Baker rifle is given center stage as it should be.Even if you are not a "green jacket", you'll find this book well worth having on your shelves. Don't be surprised if you find yourself singing the 95th official song; 'OVER THE HILLS AND FAR AWAY'
