The monthly Army List is the official list of all army officers, regular, territorial or reserve, as at the end of the month immediately prior to the date of publication, and this makes the August 1914 Army List a most significant one. But it is not just a list of names, it shows the command structure and order of battle of the British Army and Indian Army, all the regular and territorial divisions and their locations, their commanders and staffs. Officers up to the rank of Lieut-Colonel are show in their regiments/corps in seniority; in infantry regiments the battalion is also shown. The locations of all regiments and battalions are given. Officers of colonel rank and above are on a consolidated list, grouped by ranks and according to seniority. In this August list all the artillery brigades, batteries and companies are shown with their officers and locations. Other lists include Royal Marines, RFC, Staff College graduates and students, officers on half pay, Colonial regiments, officers attached to the Egyptian Army, instructors and staff of Army schools, OTCs, senior Warrant Officers and many more. Indian Army officers are shown in a consolidated list by ranks as well as by regiments. This is the British, Indian and Colonial Army on the eve of war.

He went on to serve as Divisional Corps liasion officer in 1914-15, his correspondence offers a rare insight into the changing face of the British Army at this time. In 1916 he took over the 113th Brigade, in a New Army Division 38th (Welsh). The first major test was on the Somme at Mametz Wood, where the divisional commander was sacked. He describes this famous fight and eventual capture of the wood in dramatic detail. Once again in the thick of the fighting at Pilckem Ridge in 1917 on the first day of Third Ypres, his letters show the importance of this battle’s success. In 1918 he travelled to Italy, where his diaries reveal for the first time how the Allied Command functioned in this theatre. His constant correspondence with his brother-in-law Henry Wilson, the C.I.G.S., is a unique insight into British Army High Command and this legendary Field Marshal. This rare collection of letters offers a broad and detailed insight into the First World War that will fascinate any enthusiast.

Download Capturing Hill 70 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In August 1917, the Canadian Corps captured Hill 70, vital terrain just north of the French town of Lens. The Canadians suffered some 5,400 casualties and in three harrowing days defeated twenty-one German counterattacks. This spectacularly successful but shockingly costly battle was as innovative as Vimy, yet few Canadians have heard of it or of subsequent attempts to capture Lens, which resulted in nearly 3,300 more casualties. Capturing Hill 70 marks the centenary of this triumph by dissecting different facets of the battle, from planning and conducting operations to long-term repercussions and commemoration. It reinstates Hill 70 to its rightful place among the pantheon of battles that forged the reputation of the famed Canadian Corps during the First World War.
