Description

Originally published in 1938, this Routledge Revivals edition examines the transformation of the British Army during the pivotal years between the South African War and the outbreak of World War I. The book traces the evolution from Victorian military traditions through the adoption of service dress and the creation of the Territorial Force under the Haldane Scheme. Written by a Cambridge historian and experienced Territorial officer with twenty-three years of military service, this work provides essential insights into how the Army modernised its uniforms, structure, and organisation during this critical period. The author's dual perspective as both scholar and military practitioner offers authoritative analysis of the institutional changes that shaped the Expeditionary Force of 1914. This reissue makes available a foundational historical study of British military development that remains relevant for understanding early twentieth-century defence policy and institutional reform.

Key Features

Covers the transformation of the British Army from 1899 to 1914, bridging Victorian military traditions and the modern Expeditionary Force.

Examines the creation of the Territorial Force through the Haldane Scheme, replacing the nineteenth-century Volunteer Rifle Corps structure.

Written by a Cambridge historian with twenty-three years of personal Territorial service, combining academic scholarship with first-hand military experience.

Originally published in 1938 as the first comprehensive history of Army development during the post-South African War period.

This Routledge Revivals edition restores an important historical text exploring uniform changes, military modernisation, and institutional reform.
