A famous county regiment at war on the veldt The Green Howards are a regiment with a long association with Yorkshire and the regimental names survives within the Yorkshire Regiment of the British Army to this day. It has served under Marlborough, during the American War of Independence, in India, during the Crimean War, in the Sudan, on the North western Frontier and on many other campaigns and battlefields. This book concerns the regiment's service during the Boer War at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in South Africa. This fascinating account chronicles the men of the Green Howards at the fiercely contested Battle of Paardeburg, where Sergeant Atkinson won a Victoria Cross, and beyond. The book contains very interesting accounts of the regiments service as mounted infantry as well as vital information for genealogists. This is an indispensable account of the campaign of a famous regiment and is essential for those interested in the Boer War or in accounts of Yorkshire men at war. Available as softcover and hardcover with dust jacket for collectors.

Regimental histories abound, but few can be as stirring as this story of the fortunes of the famous Yorkshire-based Green Howards. Raised in 1688 in response to a call for loyal troops, the Green Howards have maintained their tradition of loyalty over the past 300 years winning many superb battle honours. Their history reflects that of the British Army as there is hardly a major campaign that this Regiment has not been involved in; the French Wars of 1697-1793, the American War of Independence, Crimean War, First and Second World Wars, service in Suez, Malaya, Northern Ireland, peacekeeping operations in Bosnia and the war in the Gulf. This fine book brings the story of one of Britain's finest regiments right up to date.

The British Army suffered one of its greatest crises when in December 1899 the Boer irregulars inflicted three reverses in South Africa in 'Black Week'. A nation grown accustomed to success was stunned. Part of the answer was a very British blend of patriotism and pragmatism. For the first time civilian volunteers and part-time soldiers were allowed to fight overseas to the horror of traditionalist professional soldiers. Yet, by the end of the Boer War, almost 90,000 men had volunteered to serve the Colours. Much of sporting high society joined the newly formed Imperial Yeomanry. The Volunteers sent infantrymen to serve alongside the regulars and the City of London financed the raising of the City Imperial Volunteers. Men also came forward from the colonies. This book tells the story of these volunteer units.
