Neither unionist nor nationalist : the 10th (Irish) Division in the Great War
Sandford, Stephen2014
Books
This title provides a history of the 10th (Irish) Division. Unlike the 36th (Ulster) and the 16th (Irish) Divisions who have been well served by historians in recent years, the history of the 10th has been largely overlooked. This book emphatically rectifies this long oversight and in so doing brings the complicated story of the Irish divisions in World War I to completion. Using newly available sources, regimental medal rolls, newspaper reports, obituaries, census returns, and Commonwealth War graves records, the author subjects the 10th to a ground-breaking analysis, unearthing an unprecedented amount of evidence crucial to understanding its formation, composition and battle-history from Gallipoli to Palestine.
