Review title: So much to cover, so little space...
Product review: The problem is that this book tries to cover a period which was extremely turbulent for the Netherlands: the Napoleonic period had great influence on Dutch history, since the Netherlands saw 1 revolution, 3 changes in government and 1 annexation (and 1 war of Liberation)in just 20 years. This means that the uniforms for the armies of the United Provinces, Batavian Republic, Kingdom Holland, the French Empire, the Netherlands in the War of Liberation and the Kingdom of the Netherlands are a vast subject to discuss, and it simply doesn't fit into one Osprey volume. The book by R. Pawly and P. Courcelle, "Wellingtons' Dutch Allies", covers one period and is a lot better. To do justice to this period would be the addition of a volume on the Batavian Republic and the Kingdom Holland. This book simply is too minimal, and it has too many mistakes, since all clich?'s are summed up (again).
