Well the icons say it best. I am about done with the book, and surely will have to read it again to catch the stuff i missed.
This book is probably the best regimental history I have ever read. EVER..
One can almost hear Brian talking as you read the book. Chock full with information on the regiment and even more about its officers including Warren, its just a great read.
Brian and then Patrick Schroeder along with Cricket have done a great job with this. Just a must have..

Picked this book up, don't know when I will read it. :) Boy books are getting expensive.
