From the publisher

The Welsh Guards have been at the forefront of British military history over the past hundred years. Bearskins, Bayonets & Body armor traces them from their foundation in the First World War and their baptism of fire at the Battle of Loos in 1915, through their fighting at Dunkirk, in the Western Desert, Italy and Normandy in the Second World War, the Cold War and the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the Falklands War (when heavy casualties were suffered when the Sir Galahad was bombed and sunk in controversial circumstances), the Balkans, up to the campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan in the 21st century.

As well as the Regiment's operational history, this book also offers a unique insight into its high-profile role in ceremonial events in London such as the Changing of the Guard and Trooping the color, which have made the Guards one of the best-known symbols of Great Britain.

This book will be required reading for all those interested in the history not just of one famous regiment, but of the British Army over the past century.
