"Will be an inspiration to all ranks of the Regiment present and to come" - King George VI In this fascinating Regimental history, Wyrall makes use of the diaries and personal memoirs of those who fought in the Somerset Light Infantry. He also notes that his work was read by many other Generals before final publication, making this a truly collective recollection of the Great War.Concentrating on the strategic planning of the Infantry he reveals the daily grind of the war and the long march to freedom, documenting time spent at Le Cateau and the unforgiving, relentless realities of trench warfare. The Battles of Marne, Aisne, Armenti�res, Ypres, Loos and The Somme are recorded in unprecedented detail as well as the fierce and critical fighting of the Hindenburg Line. Wyrall goes on to describe how the men, exhausted, continued on to Palestine and Jerusalem, culminating in the final advance at Flanders and new, uncertain military horizons in India. Praise for the author: 'It displays the true regimental spirit' - Sir Ivor Maxse'Captain Everard Wyrall is an indefatigable military historian.' - The Spectator 'It is a record of patience and determination, of self-sacrifice and bravery.' - Field Marshal George Francis MilneEverard Wyrall (1878-1933) served in the Boer War, the First World War, and the Third African War. He was an author, journalist, and historian who contributed significantly to the literary commemoration of First World War, compiling extensive official military histories, including, among others, those dedicated to the Somerset Light Infantry, Middlesex Regiment, King's Liverpool Regiment, and West Yorkshire Regiment.

The War Diaries for the Great War, held under WO95, represent one of the most popular record collections held at the National Archives, Kew, London. For researchers and family historians, the War Diaries contain a wealth of information of far greater interest than the army could ever have predicted. They provide unrivalled insight into daily events on the front line and are packed with fascinating detail. They contain no modern editing, opinions or poorly judged comments, just the war day by day, written by the men who fought this 'War to end all Wars. They are without question, the most important source of information available on the war on the Western Front. Full colour facsimile of each page with specially created chronological index. What is a War Diary? The headquarters of each unit and formation of the British Army in the field was ordered to maintain a record of its location, movements and activities. For the most part, these details were recorded on a standard army form headed 'War diary or intelligence summary'. What details are given? Details given vary greatly, depending on the nature of the unit, what it was doing and, to some extent, the style of the man writing it. The entries vary from very simple and repetitive statements like 'Training' up to many pages of description when a unit was in battle. Production of the diary was the responsibility of the Adjutant of the headquarters concerned. Is there any other information or documents with the diaries? Some diaries have other documentation attached, such as maps, operational orders and after-action reports.

This third and final volume in the 274-year old history of one of the British Army s most distinguished infantry regiments narrates its part in the retreat from Empire. In these pages covering the immediate post-Second World War years of 1946-1960, the regiment witnesses the end of the Raj in India; and occupation service in Greece, Austria and Germany. The SLI then fought Communist jungle insurgency in the Malayan Emergency and was mobilised to take part in the abortive Suez operation of 1956. The final chapter in the SLI s story is its amalgamation with the equally distinguished West Country regiment, the Duke of Cornwall s Light Infantry. It is, as Field-Marshal Lord Harding writes in his foreword a proud story of devoted and distinguished service in many different parts of the world . With 18 b&w photos, four maps, 18 appendices, a bibliography and an index.

The story of a typical infantry battalion of a county regiment as they fought their way from the beaches of Normandy to the River Elbe. In the proud words of Lt. Gen. G.I. Thomas, their divisional commander, the 4th Somersets 'Never had a failure and never lost an inch of ground.... they knew they were better men than the Germans and never ceased to show it'.Unusually for an official history of this kind, the book has no single author, but includes contributions from all ranks to build a picture of such hard-fought actions as Hill 112 and Mount PIncon in the Normandy campaign; the heavily contested crossing of the RIver Seine, the 'taking out' of the ancient German town of Cleve, and finally the taking of the north German port city of Bremen. This is the story of the final months of the Second World War in Europe seen through the eyes of the men who won it.
