Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Coldstream Guards in the Crimea The struggle for Sevastopol forms the main feature of the one great European war, in which we have been engaged, since the defeat of Napoleon I. At the battle of Waterloo. Though obscured by other events, it is still fresh in the minds of all thoughtful Englishmen and while a great deal has already been written about it, we cannot say that the subject has yet been exhausted. Indeed, this is far from being the case and it is possible that only in the present day - when the leading actors of the great drama have all disappeared - will historical criticism sufficiently elucidate many of the important points, connected with events in the East between 185 3 and 1856, which up to now have scarcely been weighed and considered as they deserve.

RETURN SHOWING BY MONTHS THE NUMBER OF NON-COMMISSIONED OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE 1st BATTALION COLDSTREAM GUARDS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES DURING THE WAR WITH RUSSIA, BETWEEN FEBRUARY 23, 1854, AND JUNE 30, 1856, AND THE CAUSE OF DEATH. This table is not absolutely correct, as it accounts only for 691 instead of 699 Non-commissioned officers and men, who fell in the war, either killed, or wounded, or by disease. According to Dr. Wyatt, who does not classify the casualties by months, the total losses were 81 killed in action, 54 died of wounds, and 564 died by disease, or 699 men. But the above return has been given, as it indicates sufficiently the months during which the bulk of the men lost their lives. APPENDIX E.

Download or read book A History of the Coldstream Guards From 1815 to 1895 Classic Reprint written by John Foster George and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Coldstream Guards, From 1815 to 1895 The first few chapters deal with events that took place in France, after Waterloo, including the military occupation of the north-eastern frontier by the Allies, up to the year 1818. The period onwards to the Crimean War, although containing but few accounts of interest concerning the career of the Regiment, is valuable as continuing, to a considerable extent, the history of events in Europe so far as that is consistent with the subject of the present volume. There is reference, nevertheless, to the part taken by the Regiment in the suppression of the Canadian rebellion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Guards Brigade consisted of three battalions, the 3rd Grenadier Guards, 1st Coldstream Guards and 1st Scottish Fusilier Guards (as the Scots Guards were then known). The book opens with a resumé of the causes of the War and an analysis of the woeful disorganization of the Army, in contrast to the efficiency of the Royal Navy. The Brigades performance in the major battles (Alma, inkerman etc.) is examined. The author describes the Russians plans, the ground and conditions experienced by the long suffering troops. The roles and abilities of the various commanders, often found wanting, is fascinatingly treated. After the war was over, the return home and parades are described.

This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seventy-One Years of a Guardsman's Life During a winter abroad, after a period of great sorrow, I took advantage of a retentive memory, and aided by a dear and devoted daughter, * gathered together many reminiscences which, reaching back to the "forties," recall customs now obsolete, and bring to life, if but for a moment, notable persons long forgotten by society and even the historian. And further, while in search of other papers after my father's death, I found a box containing all my own letters addressed to my family during the Crimean War, extending over a period of two years and a half. As I had written by every mail the packet was large, and some years ran by before I, already a veteran, reopened the carefully preserved records of my life during that campaign. Many of the letters had been written under trying conditions, and without any attempt at revision or even regard to grammar; and, in short, they were the unstudied outpourings of thought on current events, forecasting recklessly, reflecting with too hasty judgment. Yet I did not find that either our sufferings or the dreary monotony of our daily work revealed despondency, or a desire to relinquish the task set before us.
