Bag om An Author In The Territorials

An Author In The Territorials: Experiences Humorous And Otherwise is a book written by Coulson Kernahan and published in 1908. The book is a memoir of Kernahan's experiences as a member of the Territorial Army, a part-time volunteer force in the United Kingdom. Kernahan served as a private in the 2nd London Regiment during the early 1900s. The book is divided into several chapters, each detailing a different aspect of Kernahan's time in the Territorials. The chapters cover a range of topics, from the initial training and recruitment process to the various drills and exercises that Kernahan and his fellow soldiers underwent. Throughout the book, Kernahan injects a humorous tone into his descriptions of army life, poking fun at the various quirks and idiosyncrasies of his fellow soldiers and officers. However, he also provides a serious look at the challenges faced by the Territorials, including the difficulty of balancing military duties with civilian life and the strain that prolonged periods of training and mobilization placed on families and communities. Overall, An Author In The Territorials: Experiences Humorous And Otherwise provides a unique insight into the life of a Territorial soldier in the early 20th century, combining humor and seriousness to create a compelling and entertaining memoir.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
