Compiled under a Horse Guards order of 1836 that every regiment’s services should be recorded, this history follows the 18th Foot, the Royal Irish, from its raising in 1684 through the wars of William III, the famous storming of Namur in 1695, Marlborough’s campaigns and later service around the world to 1848, with the succession of its colonels.
