Detailed history of the part played by the Welch in the Great War. Primarily employed on the Western Front, the Regiment's battalions also saw service at Gallipoli; Mesopotamia, and in Palestine and Macedonia. The Regular battalions of the Regiment were deployed in France and Belgium from the outbreak of war in 1914; and took part in the battle and retreat from Mons; and the other battles of the war of movement - the Marne; Aisne and first Ypres. Later engagements in which the Regiment fought included Aubers Ridge and Loos in 1915; the Somme in 1916; Arras, Messines and Third Ypres (Passchendaele) in 1917; and the German Spring offensives and final advance to victory in 1918. This is a fine and detailed history of one of the most famous names in the British Army, illustrated by striking photographs and detailed maps.
