See all formats and editions
With over four years research, the author draws upon the regimental archives and journals, anecdotes, personal and official diaries, and a wide range of other documents and interviews. The book's recurring themes are the changing nature of infantry soldiering, the constant battle of the Army to recruit, and the traditions and the 'oneness' of an infantry regiment. Special emphasis and extensive coverage is also given to the 1st Battalion's operational activities and to the Northern Ireland campaign in particular.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Military history read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 27, 2019

Having served with the Battalion from early 1970 until 1981 then with 1 GLOSTERS until 1992 I have found the book to be an absolutely well chronicled history of such a proud regiment until it’s untimely end in 1994 when it amalgamated with an equally historic infantry regiment of the line. I would recommend any person to read this book who is truly interested in infantry Regiments history

My father, uncles, brother and myself served as Farmers Boys, I now know the bits between a lot of the stories I heard as a child. From one amalgamation to the next we were there, strange when you join something as a teenager and people, know your Dad and your brother, a true family regiment. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and in the latter stages I was there, I was so proud of my regiment as I know all my friends who I served with are,

Probably one of the best books on a regiment that I have read. Very exact and detailed. Well worth a look even if you have never heard of the Duke of Edinburgh's Royal Regiment (Berkshire and Wiltshire).

This book was bought for a former member of the Duke Of Edinburgh's Royal Regiment. It tells the whole story and is full of familiar names to me and my family. A great Christmas present.
