Two linked books of the Irish on many fronts of the Great War
This book concerns the service of the regiments of the British Army
raised in Ireland before and during the First World War together
with those with Irish affiliations. So within its pages readers
will discover not only The Irish Guards, the Connaught Rangers, The
Royal Munster Fusiliers and many other regiments with long and
venerable histories and battle honours but also the London Irish,
the Tyneside Irish and the battalions of the new army. Each chapter
features a particular front or action providing an excellent
overview of the Irish in action throughout the conflict. Here we
join them on the Retreat from Mons, on the Gallipoli peninsula, at
Loos and during the Somme offensive. No account of the Irish could
possibly be complete without the inclusion, as here, of anecdotes
from the irrepressible Irish soldier himself, with all his wry
humour and indomitable bravery and fighting prowess. This book
brings together two volumes on the same theme by the same author.
Available in softcover and hardcover with dust jacket.
This Is A New Release Of The Original 1916 Edition.
