Default Arthur Ward 20th Century cap badges

https://www.abebooks.co.uk/book-sear...r/ward-arthur/

Published 2008 and whilst it is a chatty read with high quality photos, alas the badges are peppered with fakes.

A pleasant read but not one for authenticating badges.

A book I've often seen online and meant to get around to buying - sounds like there's not much point in getting it though.

My local library stocks a copy so worth a loan request but I would not buy it.

It has a lovely photo of the 12th Lancer Vic badge with the incorrect feathers and some obvious howlers.

General, not well organised, some dud badges. Get it very cheap or not at all.
