Written in October 1916 to raise money for the regiment’s Prisoners’ Aid Fund, this short history sketches the London Rifle Brigade from its formation as a volunteer corps through the lean years before the Territorial Force. Its second part follows the battalion to France and Flanders in 1914 and 1915, day by day through trench lines near Ypres such as La Brique, followed by several appendices.
