The Present-day Regiments Of The British Army, Many Dating Back To The Seventeenth Century, Have Long And Distinguished Histories. Campaigns In War And Peace Across The World, From Flanders To The North West Frontier And From Spain To New Zealand, Are Still Celebrated In Regimental Customs And Battle Honours. Since The First Edition Of This Book, There Have Been Dramatic Cuts In Defence Spending And Comprehensive Role Changes For Many Of The Army's Oldest Regiments.
