	Red coat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The usual uniform of British soldiers during the 18th and 19th centuries (prior to the introduction of khaki) was a red (or scarlet) coat and white breeches.
		The epithet "Redcoats" was used throughout the world, but is particularly associated with American colonists during the American Revolution.
		The term is still used in Ireland to refer to the British Army, and sometimes to all British people.

	Amazon.co.uk: Rebels and Redcoats: The American Revolutionary War: Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		REBELS & REDCOATS employs the latest scholarship and vivid eyewitness accounts to argue that the war was the product of a broad French imperial design, which found fertile ground in the resentments, opportunism and greed of many prominent colonials.
		REBELS & REDCOATS is a controversial but much-needed historical corrective to standard accounts of the war, a vivid portrait of the passionate, violent and bloody events that resonate down the centuries to the present.
		Anyone who has read Richard Holmes's books "Redcoat" and "Wellington" and are buying this book after watching his TV series beware: the narrative is as dry as dust with none of the atmosphere of Holmes's own writings.

	DVD Talk > Reviews > Rebels & Redcoats - How Britain Lost America
		One of the "freedoms" that the colonists were fighting for was the "freedom" to disregard the boundaries that the British had negotiated with the native tribes, and expand westward unchecked, taking land by force.
		Rebels and Redcoats is narrated by military historian Richard Holmes, who does an outstanding job of making the strategy and tactics of the war extremely accessible to the viewer.
		Rebels and Redcoats: How Britain Lost America is a must-see documentary, illuminating not just the real events and motivations behind the American Revolution, a war that's all too often reduced to a folkloric level, but also revealing a great deal about the nascent character of the United States.

		Christopher Hibbert's "Redcoats and Rebels" is a book that would probably not have been published a quarter-century ago: it takes the most sacred of all political events, the American Revolution, and shows it through the eyes of the losing side.
		Redcoats and Rebels is a succinct history of the American Revolution as told primarily from the British perspective.
		Redcoats and Rebels is suitable for either general audiences or specialists who desire background on the British high-level conduct of the war.

	H-Net Review: Mark Power Robison on Redcoats: The British Soldier and War in the Americas, 1755-1763
		As successes mounted and the focus of the campaign switched to the Caribbean in 1761, the redcoats experienced the apex of their esteem in the colonies--acclaim that would not last long as the ongoing presence of the troops in the colonies led to post-war tensions.
		To blame all atrocities the redcoats perpetrated during the war so casually on retaliation for crimes first committed by their opponents oversimplifies a complex process of adaptation.
		The popularity of the redcoats in the North American colonies in 1763 stands in stark contrast to their reviled status just a few years later.

		When future Redcoats drummer John Spirit was 16 in 1963, he sang on the Top 20 novelty hit "Martian Hop" by the Ran-Dells, which he co-wrote with the record's producer, Rappaport.

	UPNE \| Rangers and Redcoats on the Hudson
		From 1991 to 1998 archeologist David Starbuck conducted excavations on Rogers Island, one of the most significant military encampments of the French and Indian War.
		Located in the Hudson River in what is now the town of Fort Edward, Rogers Island was once home to thousands of British "redcoats" as well as hundreds of "rangers"—irregular American colonial fighters.
		In fact, the island is named for its association with the famed Major Robert Rogers, leader of Rogers’ Rangers and noted author of "Rules of Ranging," his brief code-of-conduct for colonial guerrilla fighters written while encamped on the island.
