I have a minor itch to do some AWI Spanish troops. I have some already painted SYW Swiss, sold as SYW Spanish. etc. see winston's threads. I was looking for some uniform books, and naturally came across the Uniformology series that I should have bought years ago before I realized that I would "need" them.
OK. Book 8 Vol 1 is easy to fond on eBay. Book 25 Vol 2, not so much. Both are 13.95 pounds from Britain.
Amazon has vol 2 for $72 USD, as a used book.  Yeah, I know. Used book prices are horribly inflated, but this isn't even OOP! Next paycheck, I'm buying both from Partizan. No fear of the Atlantic Ocean for me! |

I bought all mine from the US and had to pay for shipping them to UK! I see Bruce lists all of the books on CD, are they from Caliver as well? If direct from Bruce it is a cheaper option for you John. |

John, Uniformology sells these, printed and shipped from Caliver in UK, for 13.50 UK pounds each for Volumes 1 and 2:
