In 'American Military Insignia, 1800-1851', J. Duncan Campbell provides readers with a detailed catalog of the Army of the United States' insignia, other than buttons, epaulets, and horse furniture, from the National Collections during the period 1800-1851. Campbell's scholarly work draws on uniform regulations, ordnance regulations, and records in the National Archives to provide an accurate and informative account. The unique W. Stokes Kirk Collection, which includes rare firearms, powder flasks, insignia, epaulets, military caps, and the like, is a standout feature of this catalog. Campbell acknowledges that although this catalog is not intended to be a definitive study, it provides a representative chronological cross-section of typical designs and variations of insignia worn by the uniformed or "volunteer" militia. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American military insignia.
