Looks like a worthy project. Good to see a book or books where images are the key and where publishers have not curtailed there use.
The new one is being pitched as a direct update of that one by the look of it plus Cole's wartime one plus - maybe - Davis with coverage of sub-divisional badges. It might even cover the mysteries of battalion flashes...
I was lucky enough to look through all three today (Coles original version...and both volumes of the new "BoB") I can assure you that there's no comparison. This new work is MASSIVE (and in colour)......'for what it's worth.......very very impressive
