About This Book

A regimental history traces the raising and home training of a territorial rifle battalion, its embarkation for the Western Front, and its experience of trench warfare. It recounts periods in reserve and in sustained defence, a severe gas bombardment at Armentières, and participation in major offensives including Passchendaele, the breaking of the Drocourt-Quéant section of the Hindenburg Line, the Cambrai fighting, and the final advance into northern towns up to the Armistice. The volume includes maps, photographs, sketches of specialist roles, and detailed appendices of officers, warrant officers, and service rolls.
