Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medals and Decorations of the British Army and Navy, Vol. 2 The fact that the naval and military forces of the Crown which had taken part in the Peninsula War, and in contemporaneous operations in other parts of the world, had not generally received any decoration commemorative of their services, whilst all the army which fought at Waterloo had received a medal, appears to have given rise to a feeling of dissatisfaction which, although it did not become the subject of official discussion, was for many years ventilated in military circles and in the press.

Book excerpt: This two volume set, originally published in 1897, has become the cornerstone of knowledge for every serious medal collector, researcher and writer. It is truly an outstanding and remarkable work full of original documented facts, illuminated by a comprehensive range of medal illustrations that have never been equalled in any other reference work. Mayo served at India House and became Assistant Military Secretary, he was privy to all the Colonial correspondence and Mint invoices, giving him an incomparable insider s knowledge. The important facts and figures relating to the early Indian and Afghanistan campaign medals within this work have been used by authors and compilers. Commencing with the famous Elizabethan Amada medals of 1588, the listing of the early awards is quite staggering in its scope, with obverse and reverse of these rare pieces superbly illustrated. Some 115 illustrations of awards prior to 1800 are set out with a most informative text, which often includes warrants, decrees and citations. Also detailed are other gallantry and service rewards such as Jewels, Chains, Swords, Badges and Presentation Scarves. The texts setting out the Napoleonic period Gold Crosses, Gold Medals and their ornate battle bars, are accompanied by Official letters and decrees. The Duke of Wellington s magnificent enamelled double chain Gold Collar and Cross awarded for the peninsular and Waterloo is shown in a full colour plate. The text and illustrations of campaign awards for Maida, the Peninsular War, Waterloo, Ceylon, Manila, Java, Burma, Afghanistan, Scinde and other Indian battles, are often accompanied with their respective despatches. Issuance figures for some awards are confirmed from British and Indian Mint records. East India Company citations give an insight into some rewards - for instance a named Subadar is noted as being awarded a gold medal and a grant of land for his gallant service at Agra. All the Victorian awards up to 1897 are encompassed, i.e.:Gallantry, Campaign and Service awards, many medals are illustrated with their range of multiple campaign bars. Also detailed are: Long and Meritorious Service medals. The (F.O.) Foreign Service medals, all type reverses are shown. Miss Nightingale s Jewel. Best Shot medals for British Army, Indian Army, Bengal Arm, Indian Volunteers. Arctic medals are detailed together with a listing of the ships involved. The work also embraces may associated award including: Davison s Nile and Boulton s Trafalgar medals. The Magdala Medal, four types illustrated. The Pollock Medals, National Rifle Association medals. Recipients of City of London Swords of Honour and East India Company presentation swords. A section names military and naval service dogs that have been awarded medals. The information within these two volumes will reward and expand the knowledge of even the most informed medal enthusiast. No medal library can afford to be without this premier work of reference.

Hastings Irwin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-16 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Medals and Decorations Issued to the British Military and Naval Forces and Allies 1588 to 1910 The older medals become scarcer year by year, and so the difficulty of obtaining a perfect collection becomes greater. Another unfortunate fact is, that before interest in this subject was aroused many valu able and unique medals had found their way to the melting-pot, a loss which, from a numismatical point, it is impossible to over - estimate. As instances of what collections can be made by perseverance and care, may be mentioned those of Colonel the Hon. H. F. Eaton, Colonel Murray, and Captain Whitaker, all of them containing some speci mens which may be safely described as unique. The Author wishes to express his indebtedness to Colonel the Hon. H. F. Eaton, Colonel Murray, lieut.-colonel Whalley, Captain Greg, Captain Tancred, Captain Whitaker, R. Day, Jun., Esq., and J. Harris Gibson, Esq., for many hints and much valu able information, without which this compilation would have been very much more difficult.

Download or read book Medals of the British Navy and how they were won written by WH Long and published by Lancer Publishers. This book was released on 2010-01-15 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Britain will always be grateful to her Navy for making her an empire, “on which the sun would never set”. It was the British Navy, which time and again, had been solely responsible for routing the forces of the various kingdoms in the world. And it was these acts of heroism by the valiant members of the nautical forces of the British Empire, which deserve more than perhaps just a mere mention. These acts have gone on to win various prestigious medals and other decorative honours. In this book, the author WH Long collates these stories of heroism from the various books and journals, which have long gone out of print. While the stories behind these medals may have been erased from records, they will forever be entrenched in the minds of a grateful British folk. These medals do not merely record an event, but they have a story to tell – a story of valour, courage, determination and patriotism. A must have book for a military enthusiast.
