Accuracy of osprey books
#3
Ditto to what Brian said. I think they're good gateway books. If the author knows his topic well (a few of them frequent this forum in fact) then they're more than worth the money. Think of them as gateway books. They'll lead to thicker and thicker ones which of course cost more money lol.

As a reenactor they're a great resource, they supply good information to do an impression and usually come with illustrations or pictures of original artifacts.

But like anything else, get your info from more than once source, and then form your own opinions but keep your mind open.

Welcome to the forum Greg!
