Captain Rose, who served with the battalion, tells the story of this second-line Territorial unit from its raising through its years in France, illustrated with his own drawings. Trench tours, billets in villages behind the line, the Arras sector and the battles of 1917 and 1918 are told with a soldier’s eye for weather, mud, comradeship and loss.
Unusually well-written for a regimental history, and valuable to anyone tracing an Oxfordshire or Buckinghamshire soldier. Download the free EPUB.
