The German aim of rushing through Belgium and France in one overwhelming flood was foiled by the gallantry of the Allies in August and September 1914. This detailed reference work lists the names of those honoured in 'The Contemptible Little Army' which fought at Mons, The Marne, The Aisne and Ypres, and
also includes those of the Royal Navy, Royal Flying Corps, Royal Naval Air Service, the Indian Army and Colonial Forces.
Compiled from official sources Honours and Awards of the Old Contemptibles lists, regiment by regiment, all honours and awards, mentions in despatches and officers' promotions from August 1914
to June 1915.
Honours and Awards of the Old Contemptibles is a companion volume to South African War Honours and Awards and is based on a virtually unobtainable publication of the Army and Navy Gazette in 1915. It is a source work of considerable value to military historians and especially to medal collectors.
