British Army has grown up. I have tried merely to tell a story, and therefore omitted much that might have been said regarding the noble work the Queen sA rmy has done. As regards the opinions advanced, I have always, as far as possible, given the reasons for my views and the authorities which induced me to form them. I have adhered to the principle of using the old regimental numbers, for the sake of continuity ;though, after the date when these were altered, I have, in most cases, added their present territorial titles. I wish to express my great appreciation of the courtesy of the Colonel and theO fficers of theL ancashire Fusiliers (2O th), South Wales Borderers (24th), and the Prince of Wales sO wn (W est Yorkshire) Regiment (i4th), in allowing me to sketch the uniforms of their men from the interesting histories of their respective regiments, and to E. C. Brett, Esq., for permitting me to copy the suits of armour that I have chosen as types from his fathers magnificent volume on Arms and A rmour. KlNGSCLEAR, CAMBERLEY, March
