Manchesters - A History of the Regular, Militia, Special Reserve, Territorial and New Army Battalions Since Their Formation; with a Record of the Officers Now Serving, and the Honours and Casualties of the War of 1914-1916

This is an unusual Great War Regimental history in that it was compiled halfway through the conflict, and also contains a huge amount of detail - including biographical notes - on the battalion''s officers and other ranks. It cover all units of the Manchester Regiment - Regulars, Militia; Special Reserve; Territorial and New Army volunteers; and contains Rolls of Honour of Officers, NCOs and men killed from the outbreak of war until early 1916. It is a little book - but a truly vast storehouse of information : names, dates, details - which is a must for anyone interested in the regiment and the war.
