Book excerpt: Excerpt from Soldiers of the Queen "They shouldered arms, and looked straight before them, and wore a splendid uniform, red and blue." - The Brave Tin Soldier. The battle was nearly over. Gallant tin soldiers of the line lay where they had fallen; nearly the whole of a shilling box of light cavalry had paid the penalty of rashly exposing themselves in a compact body to the enemy's fire; while a rickety little field-gun, with bright red wheels, lay overturned on two infantry men, who, even in death, held their muskets firmly to their shoulders, like the grim old "die-hards" that they were.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Her Majesty's Army, Vol. 2: A Descriptive Account of the Various Regiments Now Comprising the Queen's Forces, From Their First Establishment to the Present Time Shortly after its establishment the regiment sailed for Gibraltar, and for the next four years or so was engaged there and in Corsica, returning to England in 1798. Up to this date its regimental number was 100, but at the end of this year, 1798, it received the numerical distinction it at present bears. The Gordon Highlanders joined the russo-british expedition against the French in Holland, 1799; and at oude-sluys, at Alkmaar, and notably at egmont-op-zee, they displayed signal courage. After some unimportant services against the French in Minorca, Quiberon Bay, and Belle Isle, they joined the forces under Sir Ralph Abercromby in Egypt. With the rest of the troops they landed at Aboukir Bay on March 8, 1801, and made good their position under a heavy fire. At Mandora, five days later, the Gordon Highlanders led the left column, and during the course of the engagement made a brilliant charge, and subsequently captured a battery. They remained in Egypt till the termination of the campaign, when they returned to England; the next foreign service in which they were engaged being the expedition against Denmark in and the year following found them amongst the forces with Moore at Corunna, at which famous action they served with distinction.

This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Records of the Queen's Own Royal Regiment of Staffordshire Yeomanry The services of the queen's own royal regiment or yeomanry have been so often called for, and never having failed to meet with due acknowledgment from the Government; and the County having given such substantial proofs of its appreciation of their services, I venture to h0pe that their perpetuation in the follow ing pages will afford gratification and honest pride to all ranks in the Corps. These Records have no literary pretensions, as their numerous faults will testify. For the most part they are nothing more than a sketch of the events with which the Regiment has been connected. Uniformity in style has not been attempted, the various accounts having been copied, with but little alteration, from the newspapers of the day, and other sources of informa tion. Without these it would have been impossible to have given more than the barest outline of the services of the Regiment. During the first thirty years after the Regiment was raised, it is feared that there may have been some duties performed which have escaped all notice, in consequence of the Orderly books for that period not being now forthcoming, which loss is the more to be regretted owing to the great care which Cap tain Mayne bestowed upon all the Regimental records.

I have tried merely to tell a story, and therefore omitted much that might have been said regarding the noble work the Queen's Army h'as done.
