Those Bloody Kilts: The Highland Soldier in the Great War

This book is the first to examine comprehensively the experience of the Highland soldier in the Great War, seeking the truths behind the myths. It does not deal at all with the operational histories, but instead with the life and character of the "Highland" soldier. The book does not just embrace the usual "main" kilted regiments, but also all the kilted regiments in both Britain and the British Empire. It is a large book, 500 pages plus and is a scholarly researched book which well deserves its place in the Collection.
