Sir John Caldwell

A regiment associated with Michilimackinac is the King's 8th and from that I thought it might be worth featuring this famous painting of the regiment's Lieutenant-colonel in the clothing of an Ojibwe chief. Descriptions and photos of the artefacts seen in the painting are here.

Hessian in the U.K.

 This portrayal is 2 years in the making. Von Donop 1776. By Marshall Beresford.  Very good. Check out his Facebook page here .
