About this book:
Its regulars were backed up by a militia described as “the most formidable, for their numbers, in the world.” Contrary to the image projected by Hollywood and most historians, even in Texas, they were smartly uniformed and equipped with the latest in weaponry. With his internationally-honored art, Bruce Marshall has recreated the uniforms in full color illustrations, supplemented by 14 photographs – including the only two known of uniformed officers of the Texas army and navy. 88 page softcover book with 26 color plates and over 30 black & white images.
