"Raised in 1688 as 'Colonel Lutrell's Regiment of Foot' in response to the supplanting of King James II by William of Orange, there began three centuries of service to the nation with the regiment becoming one of the finest in the British Army. Here for the first time is the whole story from the raising in 1688 to present day deployment with equal emphasis to all periods of its service. In it (the authors) reveal many fresh aspects of the Green Howard's history, in particular the little covered inter-war and post-1945 decades." Book is Fine.
