A famous county regiment at war on the veldtThe 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.
