Large, lavishly illustrated & excessively rare privately published history; the number printed is not known to us but it is understood to be small & this copy bares a regimental bookplate noting that this is copy no. 89. Campaigns include the Cape, New Orleans, West Indies, Crimea, Indian Mutiny, Boer War, Western Front 1914-18 with 19th & 98th Bdes. (33rd Division). Rolls of officers' services, Great War awards. A superb & substantial record, the only fault being that the binding often struggles somewhat with the weight of the text. This example here offered is somewhat shaken with several loose plates but sound & complete. See illustration on our website.
