Book synopsis

A famous Irish regiment at war The Connaught Rangers-the 88th Regiment of Foot-were popularly known as the 'Devil's Own' and have been a notable and redoubtable infantry regiment within the British Army since their creation in 1793. Principally comprised of Irishmen they had a mixed reputation as being exactly what was required on the field of battle but something of a burden to commanders on other occasions. They saw much action under Wellington during the Peninsular War and by the time the conflict in Russia broke out, in the campaign in the Crimea in the middle of the 19th century, they were once again ready to show their mettle. The author of this book was an officer in the regiment and the account in this book is based on eye witness experience. The Connaughts were in action at The Alma, Inkerman, Sevastapol and the assault on the Redan. The regiment, true to its tradition, started their campaign with a strength of 931 strong and ended it having after sustained 769 casualties as a result of battlefield deaths, wounds and disease. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.
