Fully illustrated, this is the second volume in a detailed study of
the German auxiliary troops who fought for Britain in the American
Revolutionary War. During the American Revolutionary War
(1775–83), German auxiliary troops provided a vital element of
the British war effort. While the largest body of German troops was
from Hessen-Cassel (see the first volume of this study), the
British also fielded troops from Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel,
Hessen-Hanau, Waldeck and Pyrmont, Brandenburg Ansbach and
Brandenburg-Bayreuth, and Anhalt-Zerbst. Fighting on a host of
battlefields from Saratoga to Yorktown, these hired soldiers
provided the Crown Forces with much-needed manpower and contributed
crucial combat skills in the form of the Jäger, renowned
specialists in open-order warfare. Featuring eight specially
commissioned artwork plates and an array of carefully chosen
illustrations, many in colour, this lively study examines the
organization, uniforms, weapons and equipment of these troops who
fought for King George in the New World.
