Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. This is the story of two Sheffield men from very different social backgrounds, who both volunteered in early September 1914 and joined the new Pals battalion (12th Bn York and Lancaster Regt). One of these men was Vivian Simpson, a 31 year old solicitor who was well known in the city; partly b…ecause he was an outstanding footballer, playing for Sheffield Wednesday and an England trialist. Simpson was the very first man to enrol for the new battalion and was commissioned in January 1915. The other man was Reg Glenn, a clerk in the Education Offices who served as a signaller in each battle the 12th Battalion fought in until the summer of 1917, when he was selected to become an officer. To his annoyance, Vivian Simpson was kept back in England as a training officer until after the battalion's disaster on the Somme on 1 July 1916. However, after that he became a most energetic and courageous officer. He was awarded an MC in 1917, but was killed in the German offensive on the Lys in April 1918. Reg Glenn went back to France in 1918 as a subaltern in the North Staffordshires and was wounded on the Aisne in his first day of combat as an officer. He was never fit enough to go back to the trenches and became a training officer in Northumberland with his new regiment and later with the Cameronians at Invergordon. He survived the war and lived to be 101 years old, making him the last survivor of the 12th Battalion. AUTHOR: John Cornwell was born in Hull in 1939 and read International History at the LSE. He taught in Sheffield for 23 years and also in Jamaica and Canada. He was the Deputy Leader of South Yorkshire County Council, a member of the Arts Council of G.B., Chair of the Crucible and Lyceum Theatres, Chair of the Rugby League's Youth Commission and Vice Chair of the Yorkshire and Humberside Sports Council. In retirement he became an author and has written 19 books, mainly about aspects of local history. He lives in Sheffield and his interests include military history, writing poetry and rugby league. 60 b/w illustrations The story of the very first volunteer for the Sheffield Pals, as well as that of the last survivor. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

King Edward VII School is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form located in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. King Edward VII School was formed in 1905 and named after the reigning monarch, when Wesley College was merged with Sheffield Royal Grammar School on the site of the former on Glossop Road. The former buildings of Wesley College, now King Edward VII Upper School, designed and built by the Sheffield architect, William Flockton in 1838, were Grade II* listed in 1973.[2] The school's history is far older than its regal name suggests. It can be traced directly to a Royal Charter granted in 1604 for the "Free School of King James", the result of a legacy of Thomas Smith who had died the previous year. However, there are traces of the school as far back as the thirteenth century, like a number in other towns of mediaeval England. This handsome book was published to celebrate the centenary of the school in 2005 Ref Z 2.
