Speaking of which, I got the book "Dressed to Kill" for Xmas. And I have spent way too much time pouring over every fucking detail, because the pictures of extant uniforms {down to the underlinen} are OMG BEAUTIFUL.
Seeing what specific buttons Bush had, and how his uniform lapels were actually sewn down instead of functional, where the pockets were located {in the tail skirts}, what his dirty weather captain's bicorne looked like. His boat cloak, his stockings.
