Hello T.J.
That is correct. I also illustrated the second as well.
The first book also includes reference to clothing. The sections on armour in particular will cause a lot of debate here on RAT. It includes a vast number of photographs of pieces of equipment and finds that even I myself had never seen before.
The second book deals strictly with clothing, measurements and diagrams of individual finds, plus information on the supply and manufacture of clothing. It has more information on the available evidence for clothing colour. It is the result of six years of continual research into this subject.
It might be worthwhile getting a copy for the illustrations and photographs but my information on clothing in particular has certainly come a long way since then. Hence all the other books.

Quote:How much of the information included is still accurate to today? Nothing changed since it was published?
