There's a beautiful hardbound "Time-Life" book titled "Echoes of Glory -- Arms and Equipment of the Confederacy," published in 1991.  Time-Life overestimated demand, and there's a vast number of remaindered volumes out there, I paid $7for my copy; 310 pages, FULL of photographs of hats, flags, blankets, knapsacks, shirts, shoes and boots, band instruments, canteens, cooking utensils, etc., etc.[/QUOTE]
