  • Paul Fussell's Eighth-Best Book

    I am a big fan of this author. His masterpiece is The Great War and Modern Memory and that book gave him license to write any other books he wanted. He used that license to write several more very good books. But this is one of two books of his which isn't very good. The other book being (appropriately) titled "Bad". If you are very interested in the detailed description of several types of uniforms and what they attempt to signify and why they were designed this way then you will enjoy this book. But if you are looking for Fussell's typical ironic irreverent analysis you will not find much of that here. If you like this author from reading another book of his try a different book like: Abroad Thank God for the Atom Bomb (essays) Wartime Doing Battle (In that order) ...and of course anyone ...

  • Informative and a quick read.

    explains why some people prefer to wear uniforms daily. It covers most uniforms worn on a regular basis in the United States. Each uniform has it's own small chapter. written with wisdom and wit. It manages to cover more than expected of American history as a bonus. Excellent book, worth the money.
