Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of the 5th battalion of England's 60th Regiment, which later became the King's Royal Rifle Corps. The battalion was created in 1797 from a variety of foreign personnel and served in the West Indies, Ireland, and South America before being sent to Portu…gal in 1808. It fought with distinction in the Peninsular War, participating in almost every major battle from Rolica to Toulouse. The author, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the regiment, draws on letters, diaries, and regimental records to provide a detailed account of the battalion's service during this period. The narrative captures the challenges faced by the battalion, from the difficulties of fighting in unfamiliar terrain to the complexities of operating within a multinational force. Additionally, the author provides insights into the personal experiences of the soldiers, shedding light on the hardships and camaraderie they shared. This book not only fills a gap in the history of the British Army, but also offers a valuable perspective on the human side of warfare.
