B&w illustrations, music notation for "The British Grenadiers" and "The Seventh Royal Fusiliers". "After more than 280 years of turbulent history, the Royal Fusiliers look back on a career that has taken them to nearly every country in which Englishmen have fought. The Fusilier has not always been well-treated, and not always well-liked, but his achievements - and his failures - have helped to decide the course of the British nation. Over the years, in their many campaigns, the Fusiliers developed a certain way of doing things, a certain style. They formed a tradition. And this tradition, because it grew out of the fundamentals of British character and British life, still has value for the soldiers of today."

Dust jacket has light wrinkling - mainly at top of spine and flap-folds, light browning to edges, minor rubbing, old price label on front flap.
