This 500-page book filled with color illustrations presents, for the first time, a detailed and systematic view of the uniforms and equipment of the Austro-Hungarian Army during the First World War. More than 1,200 color illustrations, some of objects never shown before: from the personal uniform of Kaiser Franz Joseph 1, to the field grey regulation wear of the common soldier; from the golden Dragoon's helmet to the dull, brown steel helmet of the Isonzo Front. A total of 250 contempororaty photographs give a vivid impression of how soldiers in the Austro-Hungarian Army looked wearing "The Emperor's Coat" during WWI. This book depicts a changing army, its soldiers marching into battle in 1914 in brightly colored parade dress and returning home in 1918 in worn-out field grey uniforms
