paperback. Condizione: Good. The History of the Bengal European Regiment, Now the Royal Munster Fusiliers, and How it Helped to Win India, Lieut.-Colonel P. R. Innes â" Facsimile Reprint Publication: Uckfield, Naval & Military Press Ltd, 2002. Formatting: 8vo, pp. xi, 572. Condition Report: Good. The book remains structurally sound and largely unread, though it exhibits a pronounced upward curling or bowing to the front cover and the preliminary pages, a common physical distortion in glossy paperbacks likely resulting from prolonged improper storage or minor humidity fluctuations. Despite this warping, the covers remain bright and highly presentable, entirely free from significant scuffing, edge-wear, or creasing. Crucially, the spine is uncreased and entirely unbroken. Internally, the text block is exceptionally clean, crisp, and tightly bound, with all photographed pages completely free from foxing, toning, or previous ownership markings, ensuring a perfectly legible reading copy. Catalogue Note: This copy is a modern facsimile reprint of the 1885 Second Edition (originally published in London by Simpkin, Marshall & Co.). Produced by the military specialist publisher Naval & Military Press, the facsimile faithfully reproduces the original nineteenth-century text in its entirety, complete with its frontispiece plate of the regimental colours, which is replicated in colour on the front wrapper. The Naval & Military Press editions are highly regarded for making scarce, out-of-print official histories and regimental records accessible to modern researchers. This modern reprint offers an affordable and practical working copy for serious students of British Imperial and Indian military history. First published in 1885, Lieut.-Colonel P. R. Innes's comprehensive history chronicles the illustrious and often brutal combat record of the Bengal European Regiment, tracing its origins under the Honourable East India Company in the mid-17th century through to its eventual transfer to the Crown in 1858. The narrative provides a vivid, detailed account of the regiment's pivotal role in the British conquest of India, detailing their relentless campaigns against native rulers as well as rival European colonial powers, most notably the French. A vital and meticulously researched resource, it remains an essential text for understanding the military foundations of the British Raj and the ultimate evolution of the regiment into the Royal Munster Fusiliers.
