South Wales Borderers 1689-1937
Description
The South Wales Borderers 24th Foot 1689-1937
CT Atkinson
Cambridge University Press 1937

A superb history with maps, illustrations and lots of detail. Includes roll of officers from 1689 with promotions.

This copy has been expertly rebound with new boards in recent times (not by me). The spine has been gold blocked and the three regimental devices on the original cover have been retained. Apart from missing end papers for which photocopies can be supplied the book is in excellent condition, very clean and no foxing. All illustrations and maps are there. The book is like new and in much better condition than other examples on the market.
