About Francis Dodd
Francis Edgar Dodd R.A. was a noted water colorist and portrait painter of the early-1900s who served on the Western Front. During his time working for the War Propaganda Bureau, he produced a number of portraits of eminent British military men. These were gathered into four volumes, two each of Generals of The British Army and Admirals of The British Navy.
About Matomaton
I've long been fascinated by military history, and over the years, have gathered a collection of reference books and images like those included in this PDF. Now, I've been encouraged to make them available to other wargamers and roleplayers for reference and to add period detail to related games.
