Download or read book More Army Blue written by John P. Langellier and published by Schiffer Pub Limited. This book was released on 2001 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new book, the development of an altogether new uniform for troops of the United States Army, a few years after the Civil War, has never been told so well or so comprehensively. In this volume, the sequel to the authors highly praised Army Blue: The Uniform of Uncle Sams Regulars, 1848-1873, John Langellier continues the story of the evolution of American army uniforms during a critical period that saw experimentation and innovation finally surmount conservatism to produce some of the more practically functional and aesthetically appealing martial clothing in American history. The breadth of Langelliers research, coupled with his years of accumulated expertise in the study of historical army uniforms, is evident throughout, and together make this book the most thorough and precise accounting the topic has ever received.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Blue Uniform: An Army Novel In the time of which I write the Old Regi ment was furbishing up its battered accoutre ments after one campaign, and getting itself in handsome trim for another: This was an occupation that palled upon it after a little, for it smacked of the smug safety of civil life. Its forte lay in the field. It had a way of going forth with more cartridges and men than another regiment, and of coming back with fewer. That was why all the young men with a life apiece to throw away quickly, made haste to enlist with the Old Regiment. But now its chief end seemed to be to draw an oiled rag through a shiny gun-barrel - an occupation for old soldiers with a satiated taste for fighting. And garrison days were unconscionably long in coming to an end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Zulu War 1879 written by Ian Knight and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Zulu War of 1879 remains one of the best known British colonial wars and included two battles whose names reverberate through history. At Isandlwana the Zulus inflicted a crushing defeat on the British; the gallant British defence at Rorke's Drift followed and re-established British prestige. Yet as this book shows, there was more to the war than this. Six months of brutal fighting followed, until the Zulu kingdom was broken up, its king imprisoned and the whole structure of the Zulu state destroyed. Years of internecine strife followed, until the British finally annexed Zululand as a colonial possession.

Download or read book Birmingham Pals written by Terry Carter and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 790 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1914, our finest young men flocked to the colors in Northern towns and cities to answer Lord Kitcheners Call to Arms in a spontaneous burst of enthusiasm and patriotism. The Call appealed to their sense of adventure and offered an escape from the humdrum life of office, factory and mill.The new recruits volunteered with brothers, cousins, friends and work mates. The newly formed units became the focus of local civic pride and soon became known as the Pals. The City of Birmingham formed three such battalions with over 3,000 local volunteers. This book tells their story.Birmingham Pals is a story that covers the full range of human experience in war—the highest courage and bravery, the misery and tedium of trench life, the exhilaration, terror and slaughter involved in going over the top. Above all, it is a story of interest to people of all backgrounds and ages, as a tale of comradeship, which, for many survivors, was to last a life time.
