A History of the Formation and Development of the Volunteer Infantry, Robert Potter Berry â" First Edition Publication: London, Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co., Limited; Huddersfield, J. Broadbent & Co., 1903. Formatting: Large 8vo, pp. 566. Condition Report: Good. The publisher's original blue cloth binding displays notable wear, including fraying and minor chipping to the cloth at the spine ends, alongside shelf-wear that has rubbed through to the boards at the corners. A significant split has developed along the cloth of the upper front joint, and the spine exhibits some minor fading and creasing. Despite these exterior flaws, the boards remain securely attached, and the silver stamping of the title and bugle-horn emblem on the front board remains bright and clear. The untrimmed text block edges exhibit typical age-related dust-darkening, yet the pages within are largely clean and the volume remains structurally sound for reading and reference. Catalogue Note: First Edition. This robustly sized volume offers a comprehensive history of the regional volunteer forces, complete with a striking coloured frontispiece depicting an 1816 volunteer officer on horseback. The book is presented in the publisher's primary blue cloth, distinguished by the traditional silver-stamped bugle-horn and crown insignia of the rifle volunteers on the upper board. Dedicated to Sir Thomas Brooke, a former Lieutenant Colonel Commandant, the text is an essential resource for West Yorkshire military history.ÂÂ A comprehensive and richly detailed history of the Volunteer Infantry in Great Britain, focusing significantly on the local records of Huddersfield and its surrounding vicinity from 1794 to 1874. Authored by Robert Potter Berry, a former lieutenant in the 6th West York Rifle Volunteers, this expansive work chronicles the formation, development, and eventual legacy of these regional civilian forces. It serves as both a vital military reference and a captivating window into the societal militarisation of Yorkshire during the 19th century. …
