Condition: New. SB xvii+174pp,plates,maps , 2003 N&MP Reprint of 1959 Original Edition Published Price £12.50 This first part of a 3-volume history of the Royal West Kents takes the regiment from its formation after the amalgamation of the 50th and the 97th Foot, the West Kent Light Infantry Militia and three Corps of Kent Volunteers, through the colonial conflicts of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. This County regiment, with its HQ in Maidstone, fought in Egypt in the campaign against Colonel Arabi's revolt that culminated in Sir Garnet Wolseley's victory at the Battle of Tel-el-Kebir in 1882. The regiment fought against Pashtun tribesmen on the unforgiving North-West frontier of the Punjab in 1897-98, and in South Africa during the Boer War from 1900-1902, when it was involved in drives against the famous Boer commando leaders Christiaan De Wet and Louis Botha. The regiment also participated in the abortive attempt to rescue General Gordon, besieged in Khartoum, and was variously deployed in Aden, Ireland and during Labour unrest in the Edwardian era in England itself. This history also narrates the regiment's sporting awards, its weaponry, and its roll of honour. Its losses in the period totalled 219 - of which 22 were killed in action, and 12 died of wounds. The remainder succumbed to disease, especially Enteric Fever during the Boer war. With ten sketches and maps, and six appendices listing Colonels, colours etc. Book.…

SB xvii 168pp, portraits, plates, maps, , 2003 N&MP Reprint of 1964 Original Edition This third and final part of the three-volume history of the Queen's Own Royal West Kent Regimenttells of the last decade in the unit's existence before it was amalgamated with its neighbouring unit, the Royal East Kent Regiment - the Buffs - to form the Royal Kent Regiment in 1961. The final ten years in the old unit's life was as eventful as any in its history as it held the line while Britain gave independence to many of its former colonies.The regiment's First Battalion saw service from April 1951 to February 1954, in the 'Malayan Emergency' - Britain's successful containment of a Communist guerilla campaign. The First Battalion also took part in a far less happy post-colonial episode, the Anglo-French occupation of Egypt's Suez Canal in 1956. Almost immediately, It then embarked from Port Said for Cyprus to help deal with the Emergency caused by the Greek Cypriot guerilla group EOKA and its campaign for unity ('Enosis') with Greece. The book concludes with the smooth amalgamation of the two Kent regiments, each with their own distinguished history. With ten appendices listing honours, awards, memorials etc. four maps and 33 photographs. Book. …
