SB xxii+505pp.portraits,plate, plans , coloured plate (portrait.) 2003 N&MP Reprint of 1932 Original EditionPublished Price £22 The fifth and final volume in this magnificent unit history of the Kingâs Royal Rifle Corps describes the regimentâs role in the Great War. The Corpsâ sixteen battalions were continuous…ly in action from 1914, when the first shots were fired at Mons, until November 1918. Most of the fighting was on the western front, but the Corps also saw action in Italy, Greece and Macedonia and at Murmansk in 1919 during the allied intervention in Russia. The Corps took part in the retreat to the Marne and the subsequent âRace to the Seaâ in 1914; and the first battle of Ypres - when, such was the speed and power of the Corpsâ famous rifle fire, - the Germans were famously deceived into thinking they were up against entrenched machine guns. In the same battle, three companies of the Corpsâ First Battalion were surrounded and annihilated. The Corps saw action in 1915 at Givenchy, and the battles of 2nd Ypres - when they first experienced gas - Aubers Ridge and Festubert. Reinforced by New Army battalions, they fought at Loos and throughout the 1916 Battle of the Somme. In 1917, Corps battalions saw action at Arras, Monchy, Oppy and Third Ypres (Passchendaele). At the Battle of Cambrai, in November 1917, the Corpsâ 10th and 11th companies, attacked on three sides, were destroyed. The Corps lost three more battalions, the 7th, 8th and 9th, on the first day of the German Spring offensives on March 21st 1918. The 16th battalion, by contrast, beat off the attacks on it in the battle of the Lys in April, and the Corps took part in the final allied offensive which brought the Armistice in the autumn of 1918. With two appendices on the eight VCs won by the Corps in the war, and listing the 567 K.R.R.C officers killed from its total death roll of 13,000. Illustrated with nine main maps and three sketch maps.

Condition: New. SB xxix+398pp.pottraits,platesmaps,plans ,2003 N&MP Reprint of 1929 Original EditionPublished Price £22 The fourth volume in the unit history of the âK. R.R.C.â details its activities in the last years of the 19th century and the opening decade of the 20th, principally the 1899-1902 Boer War. The history describ…es the reforms which slowly replaced the amateurish army of the 19th century with the trained professional force which went to war in 1914, reforms which were hastened by the shock of the Boer War. Earlier in Africa, the Corpsâ Third Battalion took part in the 1879 Zulu War and the first Boer War of 1881, including the Battle of Majuba Hill under Sir George Colley. The 2nd Battalion fought in the Second Afghan War of 1878-1880 under General Roberts; and the Third Battalion fought in the Egyptian campaign of 1882 and in the Sudan in 1884. The Fourth battalion took part in colonial campaigns in India and Burma in the 1890s. The Corps took part in the major campaigns of the Boer War under Sir Redvers Buller, including the Siege of Ladysmith, and under Roberts and Kithcener in the later âmopping upâ period of guerrilla warfare against the Boer commandos. With two appendices on Corps commanders and the unitâs sporting achievements, four portraits and twenty maps.
