Description - The Holy Boys by Jonathan Sutherland

The Royal Norfolk Regiment is one of the oldest and most distinguished fighting in the British army. Its line of descent can be traced back for over three centuries, all the way from modern Afghanistan to Monmouth's rebellion in 1685. Throughout these years, and many campaigns, the regiment has maintained a marked local loyalty and tradition which remain strong today. This sense of local identity is celebrated by John Sutherland and Diane Canwell in this highly illustrated contribution to the British army in every major conflict the country has faced. AUTHOR: Jonathan Sutherland and Diane Canwell have written widely on historical subjects, in particular on military and aviation history, and they long been fascinated by the history of Norfolk and its military heritage. SELLING POINTS: -A comprehensive, highly illustrated account of the Norfolk Regiment over its 300-year history -Wide descriptions of the regiment in action from the seventeenth century to the present day -Special focus on the regiment during the two world wars -A moving record of the soldiers and their experiences across the generations ILLUSTRATIONS 150 illustrations
