Mollo's handy and inexpensive little book gives a snapshot into what revolutionary soldiers-American, British, Hessian, Tories and Indians were supposed to look like. It is broader and more inclusive than many other sources. It has errors, but honestly the entire record-based on captured deserters, or uniforms ordered and delivered to the States (but perhaps not the soldiers)-is open to question. Mollo's book is a great beginner's resource that can later be filled out with additional, and more costly, resources. ( )
