REGIMENTS AND MERGERS IN THE BRITISH ARMY 1907 - 2007
by Goff Lumley

Goff Lumley knows a lot about the British Army and its history - especially as reflected by the cap badges proudly worn by serving soldiers. In this book he traces the army (and the TA, Yeomanry and the London Regiment and others) from 1907 to the present day and illustrates the mergers that have occurred in the last 100 years. He presents the regiments and their changes in title with many hundreds of illustrations of their cap badges, enabling readers to follow the regiments from the latter days of Empire right through until today.
