Reviews

"A marvellous biography of an illustrious Scottish regiment . . . a book that will be enjoyed by general readers as well as the military buff"
*Sunday Herald*

"Royle studs his compact narrative with the lively recollections of men like Private Donald McBane and Private William Begbie"
*Glasgow Herald*

"To compress the story of that service, covering four centuries and nearly all the major wars fought by the British Army during that time, into a single, yet concise volume must have been a real challenge. Trevor Royle, with a clarity of style for which he is justifiably known, has more than met that challenge"
*Scottish Legion News*
