Many of the photos are extreme close-ups allowing to see the details such as the weave of the fabric. These are augmented by carefully selected period photos which illustrate the real life use of the uniforms, insignia and field gear.

The book covers literally everything from belt buckles and canteens to tunics and caps. Although the emphasis is on the Guards, much of what is shown was of course also used in the regular army units. This is truly an indispensible source for the WW1 militaria collector, an absolute "must have"!
