Description

The Green Howards in the Boer War A Yorkshire Infantry Regiment at War in South Africa 1899-1902 by M. I. Ferrar. This book tells the story of the Green Howards, a famous county regiment with a long history of service, during their time in South Africa during the Boer War. The account chronicles the regiment's experiences, including the Battle of Paardeburg, where Sergeant Atkinson won a Victoria Cross, and provides valuable insights into the regiment's role as mounted infantry. For those interested in the history of the British Army or the Boer War, this book offers a unique perspective on a lesser-known campaign. It also contains information that will be of interest to genealogists researching their family history. Available in both hardcover and softcover editions with dust jacket for collectors.
