A survey of England's champions is a 1647 London book by Josiah Ricraft, printed by Austin, chronicling the commanders of Parliamentary armies during the English Civil War for a readership following the conflict. Its pictures are small engraved half-length portraits of bearded men with long curled hair, set in plain oval-free rectangular frames on cream paper, showing lace collars, armour and sashes, useful to a designer wanting period costume types or a uniform, collar and hairstyle reference.
