Seven VC's Of Stonyhurst College 1987 British Military History Book SIGNED

The Seven V.C.'s Of Stonyhurst College
By H.L. Kirby & R.R. Walsh
Published by T.H.C.L. Books: Lancashire 1987 1st Edition
SIGNED BY BOTH AUTHORs

" This finely produced commemorative volume honours the remarkable bravery of seven former pupils of Stonyhurst College who were awarded the Victoria Cross—the British Empire's highest decoration for valour in the presence of the enemy. The book provides concise biographical accounts of each recipient, including Lieutenant E. W. Costello, Captain P. A. Kenna, Lieutenant M. J. Dease, Captain A. J. Liddell, Lieutenant G. G. Coury, Captain H. M. Ervine-Andrews, and Captain J. J. B. Jackman. Through wartime records, personal recollections, and school archives, the authors document the deeds that earned each man this rare distinction, creating a lasting testament to courage and self-sacrifice across conflicts spanning the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Kirby and Walsh, both closely associated with Stonyhurst, combine meticulous research with evident pride in their alma mater's legacy of service. The book includes a foreword by Lieutenant-Colonel H. M. Ervine-Andrews, himself one of the seven V.C. recipients, lending the work unique authenticity and emotional resonance. This first edition, signed by both authors, is an appealing collectible for military historians, alumni of Stonyhurst College, and admirers of British gallantry and regimental history."
