Includes index, 216 B&W photographsPublished Price £32 One of Britainâs major cities, and the cradle of the industrial revolution, Manchesterâs contribution to the nationâs effort in the Grea…t War was enormous. This huge reference volume, originally published in 1916, offers ample testimony to the âCity Battalionsâ (referred to elsewhere in Lancashire as âPalsâ Battalions). The units commemorated here are the 23 battalions of the Manchester Regiment itself comprising some 11,000 names. They are arranged in descending order by battalion, company and platoon - and each platoon is accompanied by a group photograph. The Roll of Honour of volunteers include the Manchester Corporation; the Ship Canal, and scores of Manchester firms. As the local magnate the Earl of Derby wrote in the bookâs foreword: â2290Manchester has every reason to be proud of its sonsâ.
