FIRST CITY, A SAGA OF SERVICE - Years of research have gone into this fine book, which is much more than just another regimental history, because here is the story of the eight Kaffir wars that raged from 1835 to 1853 and were, from the point of view of the Settlers, one continuous campaign with sporadic outbreaks of peace. Everyone interested in our past history will surely welcome this account of hardship and heroism in days that have gone. Signed by Author(s).

Inscribed *Presented to our Colonel in Chief His Grace the Duke of Montrose on the occasion of his departure to Scotland in May 1988. We commend to your attention Pages 182-184. We wish you and Lady Graham a safe journey and we trust that the links between First City and Montrose will last forever. Yours Respectfully Bruce Steele Gray Officer Commanding 26 May 1988.* Signed by the author on page (v). "In his valuable book The Armed Forces of South Africa the author makes the following observation. (Tylden page 89, para. 206.) "The Grahamstown and Albany men are the earliest volunteers under the British regime of which details have come down to us. As far as is known there is no continuity except that of individuals and families." It is the purpose of this history to show that there has, in fact, been that continuity of service and that the Unit known as the Graham's Town Volunteers, The City of Grahamstown Volunteers, The First City of Grahamstown Volunteers, and, familiarly, as the First City, can lay claims to an inaugural date far earlier than the now accepted date of 7th October 1875. In order to appreciate the story of service that this history will unfold it is necessary to realise from the outset that the eight Kaffir Wars that raged from 1820 to 1853 were, from the point of view of the Settler, one continuous campaign with sporadic outbreaks of peace.".
