The Story of the "9th King's" in France
by Enos Herbert Glynne Roberts
About the author
Enos Herbert Glynne Roberts is known for The Story of the "9th King's" in France, a regimental history first published in 1922. The book follows the 9th Battalion of the King's (Liverpool Regiment) and has remained available through libraries, reprints, and Project Gutenberg.
Archival records at The National Archives identify him as Captain Enos Herbert Glynne Roberts of the King's (Liverpool Regiment), linking him directly to the unit whose wartime story he recorded. That firsthand connection helps explain the book's detailed focus on organization, movement, and the lived experience of service during the First World War.
Little biographical information about Roberts was easy to confirm from reliable online sources beyond his military connection and this published work. What does stand out is the lasting value of his book: it preserves the memory of a battalion's service in France and remains a useful window into World War I regimental history.
