Description
The Border Regiment in the Great War by H. C. Wylly and Col H. C. Wylly is a detailed history of the regiment's service during World War I. From its formation before the war to its involvement in some of the most significant battles, this book tells the story of all 13 battalions as one large united family. The regiment saw action in France, Gallipoli, the Somme, Arras, Messines, Ypres, and on the Salonika front in Macedonia and Italy. The author has skillfully woven together the experiences of the different battalions, creating a consecutive narrative that covers six separate theatres of war. The book is illustrated with 14 photographic plates and seven maps. Published in 2003, this well-researched history provides a comprehensive account of the Border Regiment's role in World War I.
