Synopsis
Initially the strongest of all the Allied armies, France's metropolitan and colonial units bore the greatest burden during the first two years of the Great War, and made a great contribution to the final victory. In common with most European countries, the pre-war French Army was based on a system of national military service providing conscripts who could be subject to recall as reservists for several years after. However, the advent of war, the crisis in manpower, and the development of new tactics and weapons brought radical changes. The influence of these factors on the organisation, equipment, uniforms and tactics of the French Army during World War I is examined in detail in this title.

The French Army 1914-18 Osprey Men-At-Arms Book
The French Army 1914-18 Osprey Men-at-Arms book is an excellent resource for French WWI Military uniforms. The research conducted by the author is thorough and many details are revealed in the text. Much developmental information is given and The period photos and color plates are excellent. As a Full time Military Figure painter, I rely on the Osprey Men-at Arms collection for most of my reference material. You will use them over and over.
