The History Of The Green Howards
By Geoffrey Powell
Published by Arms and Armour Press: London 1992 1st Edition

" The History of the Green Howards by Geoffrey Powell is a detailed regimental history tracing the origins, traditions, and exploits of one of Britain's most storied infantry regiments. Powell begins with the regiment's formation in the late 17th century, charting its service in campaigns across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, and highlighting its unique identity within the British Army. The narrative explores the regiment's involvement in major conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War, and the Boer War, emphasizing its reputation for discipline, courage, and professionalism. Powell brings to life the experiences of the soldiers through vivid storytelling, combining strategic overviews with anecdotes of individual heroism.

The book also covers the Green Howards' significant role in the First and Second World Wars, including their participation in key battles such as the Normandy landings and their distinguished service in North Africa and Italy. Powell examines the post-war period, when the regiment adapted to modern military challenges while preserving its traditions. Rich with historical detail and supported by photographs, maps, and appendices, The History of the Green Howards is both a tribute to the regiment's enduring legacy and a valuable resource for military historians, genealogists, and readers interested in Britain's military past."
