This subject this out of my general area of Interest, I do think it’s interesting. I’ve watched parts of the series Sharps Rifles, and whenever I do come it makes me want to pick up one of these books. Then again, looks like this make me want to go and find movies on the subject, who!

Not my normal area of interest either. However the subject was interesting to read about. It is interesting to read about how much warfare has changed over the years.

Thank you,
Randy :slight_smile:

I served in the descendent regiment of the 95th Rifles.
This is just the opening story of that historic and pioneering regiment who set the standards and cast the mould for the modern British Army.
