Can some body recommend a good book that covers the vagaries of Spanish civil war.uniforms as I have read that the Osprey books are not that good on the subject or any worthwhile website's
Any thoughts appreciated !

Not sure on books outside the Osprey's, but there's some info on the Balagan website: http://balagan.org.uk/war/spanish-civil-war/painting-guide.htm

The best by far is Uniformes militares en la Guerra Civil Espanola by Jose Maria Bueno.
My copy is from the 70's, but I think it's been reprinted since (maybe with slight variations on the title).
Anyhow, that's my two-penn'orth. Highly recommended.
