Etat : New. 2005 N&M Press reprint (first pub 1921). SB. xii + 212pp with 10 maps Published Price £18 On 14th January, 1915, a letter from the War Office to the Mayor of Camberwell authorised the recruiting of a brigade of field artillery (156th Brigade R.F.A). The local response was so prompt that further authority was given to raise another brigade in the same neighbourhood, to be designated 162nd Brigade R.F.A. and this was done by mid May. It was then brought to the attention of the WO that a mass of would-be recruits still remained in the Camberwell Borough, enough to complete the whole of the artillery for the 33rd Division, a Kitchener division of the Fourth New Army. The two additional field artillery brigades needed were numbered 166th and 167th (Howitzer), and the divisional ammunition column (33rd D.A.C)was also formed.This book took nearly two years to complete and throughout that time the author maintained the closest collaboration with the official war diaries, personal diaries, letters and experiences of individuals and every sort of reliable information to produce an accurate and complete record of the doings of the batteries in France. An appendix contains a list of the casualties suffered by the divisional artillery (officers by name, other ranks numerically) during the war, another shows all the other divisions supported by 33rd Divisional Artillery, when and where; a third appendix shows the various sectors of the line where the batteries were in action, with dates and official names of the battles in which they were engaged. In the text are twelve tables showing the names of the HQ Staff, brigade commanders, adjutants and battery commanders at various stages of the war. Book.…

Kossuth was a key figure in the Hungarian struggle for independence from Austrian rule, and his visit to America was intended to garner support for Hungary's cause. Kossuth's arrival in the United States was met with great enthusiasm as he toured various cities and spoke on behalf of Hungarian independence. His speeches drew large crowds, and he received a warm reception from American citizens and political figures alike. However, while Kossuth managed to stir the public's sympathy, his efforts to secure significant political or military backing from the U.S. government fell short. John H. Komlos delves into the nuances of Kossuth's interactions with the American public, his meetings with political leaders, and the broader implications of his tour for both Hungary and the United States. Through comprehensive research and the use of primary sources, the book provides a rich narrative of this diplomatic mission, its successes, and its limitations. It also reflects on the international political landscape of the time and the intersection of European revolutions with American foreign policy. This work is an important resource for those interested in Hungarian history, 19th-century international diplomacy, and the transatlantic influence of political movements.…
