Historical Record of the Tenth, or the North Lincolnshire, Regiment of Foot, Containing an Account of the Formation of the Regiment in 1685, and of its Subsequent Services to 1847

The volume chronicles one of Britain’s oldest line infantry units, from its birth during the 1685 upheavals through its early campaigns. It follows the regiment’s first deployments—domestic unrest and continental battles—showing the daily hardships soldiers endured. Drawing on official General Orders and contemporary Gazette reports, the account stays firmly grounded in primary sources. Illustrated plates add visual detail of uniforms, standards and the stark environments the troops faced.

Besides campaign overviews, the work lists officers and rank‑and‑file who earned medals, wounds or royal commendations. It explains how the regiment’s badges and colours developed, tying each symbol to a specific achievement. Personal anecdotes intersperse the facts, giving a vivid sense of military life beyond the headline battles. Listeners seeking a clear, organized record of the unit’s service up to the mid‑nineteenth century will find it valuable.
