Description: The largest army in the British Empire is detailed here, describing the developing organization, uniforms and equipment of the Imperial and other regiments during the 30 years which saw the Indian army at the peak of their numbers and combat service.
Synopsis: The Indian divisions made a huge contribution to the British war effort in both World Wars, fighting in the trenches of the Western Front and in the Middle East in 1914-18, and in North Africa, Italy and Burma in 1939-45. This detailed text describes the developing organisation, uniforms and equipment of the Imperial and other regiments during the thirty years which saw them at the peak of their numbers and their combat service. Mike Chappell's meticulous colour plates illustrate a wide range of colourful and interesting dress and combat uniforms.
