About this book:
For many years the magnificent color prints published by the firm of Rudolf Ackermann during the 19th century have been in the possession of lucky collectors. However, with the passing of many years these frail works of art have become damaged or have perished, so that many are not available to those who wish to find and appreciate the work and care that went into these productions. This book presents a period in military uniform history that has not been well covered before. By William Y. Carman with Robert W. Kenny, Jr. 176 page hardcover book with over 160 color images.
