Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Medals and Decorations of the British Army and Navy, Vol. 1
F ull-size facsimile illustrations of most of the decorations are given.
A photographic process has been adopted in the earlier cases, and there was no occasion in regard to many of them, examples of which in various metals are extant, to indicate in colours any particular metals. Moreover, as in the early days possessors of medals probably did very much as they pleased in respect to mountings and ribbons, there was no necessity to indicate what, after all, might only have been done in a single instance.
