Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Highland Regiments It is a perplexing thing when the making of history is often terrible, sometimes tragic, but hardly ever tedious, that the reading of history should be considered uniformly grey. In compiling the present book I shrink from the word 'History' - I altered it to 'Story.' It is the same thing, but it does not sound so depressing. The Story of the Highland Regiments is not merely a narrative of regimental gallantry - it is also the story of our Empire for nearly two hundred years, the story of strange lands and peoples, of heroism and endurance, of the open sea and the frontier. It is even more than that - it is the story of self-sacrifice, of courage, of patriotism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Highlander written by Tim Newark and published by Constable. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Highlanders have long been among the most feared soldiers in the world and Tim Newark's book admirably tells their stirring tale. A great read!' Bernard Cornwell On the fields of Waterloo, the deserts of Sudan, the Plains of Abraham and the mountains of Dargai, the trenches of Flanders and the jungles of Burma - the great Highland regiments made their mark. The brave kilted troops with their pipes and drums were legendary, whether leading the charge into the thick of battle or standing fast, the last to leave or fall, fighting against the odds. Acclaimed historian Tim Newark tells the story of the Highlanders through the words of the soldiers themselves, from diaries, letters and journals uncovered from archives in Scotland and around the world. At the Battle of Quebec in 1759, only a few years after their defeat at Culloden, the 78th Highlanders faced down the French guns and turned the battle. At Waterloo, Highlanders memorably fought alongside the Scots Greys against Napoleon's feared Old Guard. In the Crimea, the thin red line stood firm against the charging Russian Hussars and saved the day at Balaclava. Yet the story is also one of betrayal. At Quebec, General Wolfe remarked that, despite the Highlanders' courage, it was 'no great mischief if they fall'. At Dunkirk in May 1940, the 51st Regiment was left to defend the SOE evacuation at St Valery; though following D-Day the Highlanders were at the forefront of the fighting through France. It is all history: over the last decade the historic regiments have been dismantled, despite widespread protest. Praise for The Mafia at War: An engrossing history that reads like a thriller. 'The Godfather' meets 'Band of Brothers'. Andrew Roberts An engrossing account that has the read-on factor of the finest thriller. James Holland Newark tells an extraordinary tale with pace and conviction, and impressively unravels what really happened from the pervasive myths. History Today

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Highland Regiments have always enjoyed a worldwidepopularity quite apart from the quality of theirachievements. This popularity is due to the appeal ofimagination and romance. The spectacle of a Highlandregiment, its pipes playing, and the kilts swinging file byfile, recalls the old days when the clans rose for theStuarts. The Highland dress is not only linked for alltime with Lucknow, Balaclava, and Quatre Bras, but, stepping farther backward, with Culloden, Killiecrankie, and Glencoe. People unacquainted with uniforms find adifficulty in recognising certain English line regimentswhose records are the glory of our military history. Butthe Highlander, beyond his distinctive regiment, carriesin the memories aroused a passport to popular favou
