Campaigns include Indian Mutiny, various NWF expeditions & WW1 in France with the Indian Corps 1914-15, Mespot. 1916-17, Palestine 1918. Excellent detailed maps & many interesting photos. Perkins 475. Deluxe full green morocco, gilt, with spine title "History of the 59th Rifles F.F." which was the regiment's title until 1922, deluxe edition, but please note this copy is sympathetically rebacked with green morocco, with the orig. sp. title laid down. Also note, officers of the regiment subscribed to this "Edition Deluxe" in 1925 but these were quickly exhausted & a revised edition was published in 1935. The later work included additional chapters on the period 1856-90, NWF campaign 1930 & various corrections made, but did not include the fine illustrations & maps of this rare & superbly produced original. The plates include officers' groups, portraits of COs, photos. from the Fronts in France, Mespot, &c. See illustrations on our website.
