Description

Explore a significant era of military transformation with this Routledge Revival edition. Originally published in 1938, this work serves as the first historical account of Army development during the complex years following the South African War. It tracks the evolution of the British military from the Victorian era of scarlet uniforms and pipeclay to the modern service dress used by the Expeditionary Force in 1914. This book provides a detailed look at the transition from the nineteenth-century Volunteer Rifle Corps to the establishment of the Territorial Force under the Haldane Scheme. Written by a history scholar from St John's College, Cambridge, and a veteran with twenty-three years of Territorial service, the text offers a unique perspective on the organizational changes that shaped the army. It is an essential resource for readers interested in Great Britain military history and the structural shifts that occurred on the eve of the Great War.
