Russian Uniforms and Insignia

[Rum Ration]

I have seen numerous reference books on Russian Uniforms of WW I. Which book/books is the most useful on the Cossack Regiments?

[Ron Clifton]

Uniforms of the Imperial Russian Army by Boris and John Mollo (Blandford Press, Poole, 1979) has a number of colour illustrations 

 

There is some information about Cossack uniforms in Handbook of the Russian Army, Sixth Edition, published by the British General Staff in 1914 and reprinted by the Imperial War Museum in 1996. This has a sheet of black and white illustrations of uniforms.

 

There are probably other, more detailed, sources but these are the only ones I have to hand.
