“[False Colors]
is the definitive text on, but also the best possible introduction to,
the 'social history' of military camouflage and the key role that
artists played in its development. Roy Behrens writes beautifully and
with complete authority. As a biologist, this is the book that broadened
my horizons from an academic interest in animal camouflage to the
broader context in which contemporary theories of camouflage evolved.” —Innes Cuthill, Professor of Behavioral Ecology, University of Bristol.
“[Behrens’ False Colors
is] simply the best all-around introductory book on camouflage…it is
perfect for beginners and a finishing school for veteran camoufleurs.” —Barton Whaley, military deception expert [2013].
“[Behrens’] book False Colors provides a brilliant overview of the subject [of art and camouflage].” —Art Historian Henry Adams, in Art and Antiques [2011].
