Best Spanish American War Uniform Reference
Niederlander:
Don't forget to consult the uniform regulations, either. They're on the GAF website.
38OVI:
You also might check the same titles on www.abebooks.com Sometimes available at good prices. I've gotten some very good original reference material at reasonable prices.
Bat 2919:
What scares me is I currently have on the bookshelves of my den each and every title listed by Ned and Drydock.
This brings to mind what could become a new stickied thread. If the someone would post a books reference page beginning with what we have posted here. Then invite everyone to reply with other good reference books. From time to time the original poster could move the links people have posted up into his original post placing them into a chronological order possibly broken up into wars CW, IW, Span Am, Punitive Expedition and maybe even WWI as many of these cross back over into Expansion Era.

Ordered Cowboys in Uniform from S&S along with a shirt and a McKeever pouch. Can't have too much .45-70.
