Item description from seller

2009 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1921). SB. 471pp with maps (9 in colour), plans & illustrations. Published Price £22 This is a collective history, authored by its own officers, of the 'Robin Hoods' - the Territorial Army Battalions of the Sherwood Foresters' Regiment; named after the most famous legendary fighting man of their native Nottingham. The Robin Hoods were rushed to France to meet manpower shortages on the western front early in 1915. Though woefully short of ammunition, The 'Terriers' played a vital part in holding the line through the remainder of 1915 and the first six months of 1916 while Kitchener's mass volunteer 'New Armies' were trained. The First Section of the book records the history of the 1st/7th Battalions and their service at Mt. Kemmel; in the Ypres salient at Hooge and the Bluff; at Vimy Ridge; on the Somme at Gommecourt and at St Elie. The Second Section records the history of the 2nd/7th Battalion in Ireland; the Somme, and 3rd Ypres (Passchendaele) as well as Cambrai. The Third Section of the book concerns the history of the 7th Battalion from January 1918 to the end of the war - including the 'blood tub' at Bullecourt. There is also a Fourth Section on the home service of the 3rd/7th Battalion, plus a Roll of Honour and a List of Honours and Awards. his is a full and satisfying unit history.…
