Description: "Highlander: The History of the Legendary Highland Soldier" was written by Tim Newark and published by Constable & Robinson in London in 2009. This is a hardcover, first edition, first printing of this fine 306-page history, featuring almost two-dozen black-and-white photographs, illustrations and maps. The original price, as shown on the dustjacket front flap, was 20.00 British pounds. From the dustjacket blurb: "On the fields of Waterloo, the deserts of Sudan, the plains of Abraham and the mountains of Dargai, the trenches of Flanders, and the jungles of Burma—the great Highland regiments made their mark. The brave kilted troops with their pipes and drums were legendary whether leading the charge into the thick of battle or standing fast, the last to leave or fall, they fought against the odds. “Acclaimed historian Tim Newark tells the story of the Highlanders through the words of the soldiers themselves, from diaries, letters and journals uncovered in archives in Scotland and around the world.” The book is in fine, collectible condition, with no torn or bent pages, no scratches, stains or inscriptions, no remainder marks, no price-clipping, no bookplate, no ex-library, no book club edition, no flaws of any sort. It is as new. The dustjacket is in equally fine shape and is protected in a clear and removable archival cover. Please see the photos for a fuller description and author profile.
