The Chocolate Soldiers: The Story of the Young Citizen Volunteers and 14th Royal Irish Rifles During the Great War - Softcover
From an interest sparked by a family involvement in the Young Citizen Volunteers and the First World War, author Steven Moore has crafted an extensive, revealing and sympathetic account of the organisation. Conceived as non-sectarian and non-political the YCV was, in stages: a youth movement with national aspirations; a paramilitary body prepared to take up arms to prove its loyalty; and the core of a military unit of the British Army that fought in virtually all the major battles of 1916 and 1917. Unkindly dubbed 'The Chocolate Soldiers' and often, in short, the 'odd men out', their story is revealed through photographs and the words of the men themselves.

Review:
Michael Pegum for The Irish Sword - 'a coherent and compelling account of the rise and decline of a New Army battalion ... well illustrated and very well told, giving some understanding as to why so many men who fought in the Great War never talked about their experiences.'
