Condición: New. 2011 N & M Press reprint (of original pub). SB. xiv+271 pp Plates and IllustrationsPublished Price £9.50 The Royal Dublin Fusiliers (RDF) was formed in 1881, as a result of the Cardwell reforms, by the linking of the 102nd Royal Madras Fusiliers with the 103rd Royal Bombay Fusiliers, which became respectively the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the regiment. Both battalions traced their origins back to the Honourable British East India Company, the 2nd Battalion being descended from the Bombay Regiment, formed in 1661,the first of the Companyâs European regiments. When the South African War broke out in 1899 the battalion was already in the country, having arrived in Natal from India in 1897, and so it had had time to get acclimatised and learn the topography of that colony. It remained in South Africa till the end of January 1902 and took part in the actions at Talana Hill, Colenso, Venterâs Spruit, Ladysmith, Hartâs and Pieterâ Hills and elsewhere. This book claims only to be a plain soldierâs narrative of the part taken by 2nd RDF - the fighting, the long and weary marches across the Transvaal and the monotonous life of constant vigil in fort, blockhouse and on escort duty. The appendices contain, among extracts from Battalion Orders, letters, telegrams etc, a detailed breakdown of casualties and this will be of great interest to medallists. There is also a description of the armoured train in which Winston Churchill was a passenger as a war correspondent just before he was captured by the Boers. The long list of those who died from disease gives place and date of death as well as the cause of death, e.g. dysentry, enteric fever and, interestingly enough, one struck by lightning and one suicide. The long list of the wounded not only gives date and place where wounded but also in most cases details of the wound; (in every case bar two shell splinter casualties, the wounds were caused by gunshot, which is a truibute to the accurate Boer marksmanship). There are lists of missing, reported at various dates, including 43 missing following the attack on the armoured train.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book details the experiences of the 2nd Battalion Royal Dublin Fusiliers during the South African War. It covers their bloody baptism of fire at Talana Hill, the gruelling retreat from Dundee alongside the 60th Rifles, followed by their deployment to Colenso where they defended the vital railway bridge for over two days, against a foe armed with artillery that far out-ranged their own obsolete muzzle-loaders. Theirs was one of the first regiments to be deployed to South Africa after the outbreak of hostilities between Britain and the Boer Republics. Along with the book's historical context, the author includes the battalion's role in the conflict, and the part it played in the defence of Ladysmith and Estcourt as part of General Penn-Symons brigade. The author also examines the broader context of the war, the themes of bravery and sacrifice, and the political factors that shaped the conflict. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the South African War, and the role played by the British Army in it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
