During the period 1890-1910 the German Army of Kaiser Wilhelm II
was ablaze in color, particularly the Garde and Cavalry regiments.
In this superb new volume the author brings to the student of
uniforms, as well as the art and military historian, the true glory
of this brief, but most colorful time. Carl Becker was a skillful
and talented artist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries,
whose treatment of German uniforms, the military pomp and ceremony,
as well as the work-a-day activities of the Kaiser's army, are both
realistically and artistically among the very best. The 104 never
before published uniform plates are a treasure trove of color,
action, and rarity which have only been viewed by a select few
before this publication. The additional illustrations from books
and the postcard art reproduced here well display the scope and
depth of Becker's work. Technically correct, and artistically
rendered on the subject of Kaiser Wilhelm II's flamboyant army of
1890-1910, this book will be a welcome addition to the library of
the collector, the student of military costume, modelers and the
appreciator of well executed military art.
