My current Project is the dress, equipment and arms of the Dutch-Belgian forces.
Mainly for the Waterloo campaign. But for this I searched the Dutch and Belgian archives for the period 1813 to 1820 and even later.
I hope to publish a series of books on the subject, starting with the Dutch Line Infantry Bataillons.
if you go that route, I’d certainly be interested. In your researches, did you pick up any short bios on officer’s or personalities? Geert van Uythoven had a web site some years back, but it seems to have sunk without a trace.
I'm not so into biographies and will not be including them in my book. Nevertheless discussions on uniform patterns, production etc. will reveil some personality-traits from the likes of Tindal and Janssens.
Have you spoken to
He has offered to publish, but I think I need more space than he can offer. I think I'll go with print on demand and be my own publisher.

I wish you would have researched also the Dutch in the French Revolution, especially the time when they fought against the French.
You mean 1793-1795? My main interest is the 19th Century. I also researched the Dutch Colonial Army.
