The Regiment had nine Infantry Battalions and the Machine Gun Battalion in the field, plus various training and administrative units. The task of recording their travels and battles in a coherent narrative manner could not have been easy. The author overcame most of the pitfalls by writing a strictly chronological history of the entire regiment but with numerous margin notes to clarify what each Battalion was doing, where, and at what precise dates. The result is a massively factual compilation which is easy to read and follow, and which deals with the Regiment's services in almost every theatre of war between 1939 and 1945. A list of Honours and awards (a statistical summary only) complete this history, which will appeal to anyone interested in India, the Sikhs and their part in the Second World War.
