From the Dust Jacket: "This history covers the period 1919 to the conclusion of the Second World War in 1945. One of the main objects of this book is to present a picture of operations as a whole, but the outcome of these actions has depended on the skill and courage of platoon and section leaders and the tenacity and dogged endurance of the fighting men. It is they who made possible the victories, they who stuck it to the end and gave their Regiment a wealth of new tradition which will endure long beyond the lives of us all. It was on their deeds that battalion and company commanders were able to construct the battles and steer them to victory. Here is a book, which quite apart from it being of lasting interest to all past and present Royal Welch Fusiliers, is also a valuable contribution to our national military records.". First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/Near Very Good jacket. 8vo. xvi, 414pp.
