Review:
'The first comprehensive history of the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry to be published in over a century does not disappoint. Copiously illustrated and handsomely bound, it follows the story of the regiment's campaigns from the Seven Years' War to the Borneo Confrontation. Illuminated by the accounts of the regiment's many celebrated diarists and memorialists, george Elliott's narrative is a monumental achievement'. - Professor Ian Beckett
