Introduction
When one feels a personal affection for a Division such as I do for the 20th, it is the pleasantest of tasks to record it publicly.
The 20th Division never failed me, and never failed its neighbours, during the time that I had the honour of commanding the XIVth Corps.
How can one say more?
I owe the Division my undying thanks, and I trust this book may perpetuate its great deeds, as an incentive to all to show an equally bold front in the day of trouble.
