'That Astonishing Infantry': The History of The Royal Welch Fusiliers, 1689–2006

by Michael Glover, Jonathon Riley

The Royal Welch Fusiliers were present at all Marlborough's great victories, fought throughout the Peninsula and were present at Wellington's final glorious victory at Waterloo.

They are no longer in the British Army's order of battle having been amalgamated into the Royal Regiment of Wales. But this book is the lasting memorial to a fiercely proud and greatly admired regiment.
