About this title

Synopsis

"Loyally They Served: The History of the Queen's Lancashire Regiment - Volume I (1689-1801)" is a sweeping, richly detailed chronicle tracing the origins and exploits of one of Britain's proudest infantry lineages. Military historian John Downham, a retired officer and regimental secretary, masterfully recounts the campaigns, battles, and global service of the 30th, 40th, 47th, 59th, 81st, and 82nd Regiments-forebears of The Queen's Lancashire Regiment. From the storming of Namur and the conquest of Canada to the American War of Independence and the Egypt Campaign of 1801, this first volume captures over a century of loyalty, endurance, and valor.

Drawing from firsthand diaries, regimental records, and rare archival sources, this book offers an immersive look into life on campaign, the evolution of tactics, and the fierce esprit de corps that defined British regiments across continents. This is essential reading for those passionate about regimental heritage, colonial warfare, and the untold stories of the soldiers who built Britain's global footprint.

Perfect for fans of regimental history, 18th-century warfare, Napoleonic campaigns, and British military legacy.
