The 25 full colour plates in the book are printed on high quality art paper and illustrate in fantastic lifelike detail, some of the uniforms and insignia of the SS units from 1935-45. The American author, Gordon Rottman, well known for his immense knowledge of the German fighting units of WWII, has written a full page of information on the uniforms, units and insignia to accompany each of the plates, to make this a book for the serious collector.

July 2005 - Elizabeth has won yet another award at the Society of Artists exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London! This time she wins the Horse and Hound, best sporting painting with 'Belvoir members race - Garthorpe 2005' shown below 
This painting is now one of the first three in a new range of top quality 'Giclee' prints recently launched by Stanton Graphics (mostly as limited editions) - to be known as the 'CONNOISSEUR RANGE'.
Genuine giclee prints such as these will make excellent, quality gifts as they utilise the latest available technology, and in fact rival if not actually surpass the quality and lifespan of pictures created using more traditional printing methods, in fact such giclee prints are now to be found extensively in gallery and museum collections.
November 2004 - Elizabeths painting of the Belvoir Hounds at the Declaration Day demonstration on Melton Mowbray airfield in 2003 was depicted as a headline feature, in an article on Sporting Art in the Horse and Hound - and placed alongside a painting by Munnings!

It is being sold as a limited edition print of 100 for £40 (unframed) and is signed by the artist and also the three riders in the painting - Martin Thornton (Belvoir Huntsman) Sally Thornton his wife, and Philip at the time Whipper in to the Belvoir, but now a huntsman himself.
