The title of this book is misleading, since more than half of it (168pp) is the history of the 1st Battalion (44th Foot) from formation in 1740 to 1914, with one hundred pages devoted to the Great War. In the first one hundred and seventy years of its existence the regiment certainly saw a great deal of action as described in the first part of this volume. - in Flanders, N America, Canada, Peninsular War, Waterloo, India, Burma, Afghanistan (retreat from Kabul), Crimea, China and the S African War. During the Napoleonic wars a second battalion was formed (2/44th) in 1803 and disbanded after Waterloo in 1816. It would be another sixty-five years before a second battalion was again formed when, following the Cardwell Reforms whereby single battalion regiments were linked to create two battalion regiments, the 44th Foot was linked with the 56th to form the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Essex Regiment. When war broke out in 1914 the 1st Essex was in Mauritious; it came home in December and joined the 86th Brigade in the newly formed 29th Division ( The Incomparable 29th ). The division landed at Gallipoli on 25th April 1915 and fought there till the peninsula was evacuated in January 1916. In March 1916 it arrived in France and on 1st July 1916 the battalion was in action in the disastrous attack at Beaumont Hamel at the start of the Somme Offensive. In February 1918, 1st Essex was transferred to 112th Brigade of 37th Division with which it remained to the end of the war. In all the battalion lost in killed 1,787 officers and other ranks. The book closes with an account of the years immediately following the end of the war, especially operations in Ireland against Sinn Fein in which the battalion lost two officers and eleven other ranks killed and seventeen wounded; two officers and four other ranks attached were also killedt. Finally, there is a good index.

A Regular cavalry regiment and a Territorial Yeomanry regiment make strange bedfellows in a combined regimental history, but this is the work of an officer who commanded both during the war and felt the need to make a record of the incidents which united the Regiments in close friendship during the Great War. Whitmore was a Territorial officer, not a Regular, and his appointment to command a regular cavalry regiment must have been a unique one; there were only twenty-five cavalry of the line regiments on the Western Front and competition for command among career officers would have been keen. Furthermore he was recommended to the command of the 10th Hussars by the Cavalry Corps commander, Lieut-General Sir Charles Kavanagh, who was himself a former CO of the Regiment. The Hussars landed at Ostend in October 1914, the Essex at Havre on 1 December 1914 and both regiments served in 8th Cavalry Brigade, 3rd Cavalry Division, till April 1918 when the Essex were broken up, at which point Whitmore, who had been CO of the Essex since November 1915, was posted to command 10th Hussars where he remained till March 1919. This account is not in the form of a personal memoir but rather that of an impersonal, wartime regimental history in which the activities of both regiments are fused into the one narrative set out in chronological order. There is a wealth of information in the appendices which are arranged for each Regiment separately: Diary of movements; Roll of officers who served showing when they joined and when they left and whether they were casualties and, in the case of the Essex; where they went; Honours and Awards; list of casualties showing killed, wounded or missing. There are also two appendices showing Order of Battle, one giving names of Cavalry Corps, Division and Brigade commanders with dates, and the other giving the composition of the Cavalry Divisions and Brigades. There is an index. This is a gift for researchers, genealogists and medallists.
