THE HOLY BOYS
by Jon Sutherland & Diane Canwell
A History of the Royal Norfolk Regiment and the Royal Anglian
Regiment 1685–2010. The Royal Norfolk Regiment is one of the
oldest and most distinguished fighting forces in the British army.
Its line can be traced back more than three centuries, all the way
from Monmouth’s rebellion in 1685 to modern Afghanistan.
Throughout the years and many campaigns, the regiment has
maintained a marked local loyalty and tradition which remain
strong today. The regiment has made a notable contribution to the
British army in every major conflict the nation has faced.
OSPREY COMBAT AIRCRAFT 72: VULCAN UNITS OF THE COLD
WAR
by Andrew Brookes. Illustrated by Chris Davey
The best of the three RAF V bombers in the early years of the Cold
War, the Vulcan possessed fighter-like manoeuvrability at low
level despite its size. First flown in August 1952, it entered
service in February 1957. Most were equipped to carry the Blue
Steel stand-off missile, but in 1966 50 Vulcans were re-deployed
in a tactical low-level bombing role. Three flew during the
Falklands War, and the last Vulcans in service were used as aerial
tankers until April 1984. The book include many in-flight
photographs and detailed colour profiles. This is a timely
examination of a distinctive and ground-breaking aircraft.
New in card cover - A4 format, 96pp, numerous colour & b/w photos &
illustrations.

INSIDE THE REGIMENT
by Carole Divall
The Officers and Men of the 30th Regiment During the Revolutionary
and Napoleonic Wars. The fascinating inside story of a typical
infantry regiment during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars.
Rather than focusing on the history of the 30th Regiment of the Line
in action and on campaign, the author explores its organization,
traditions and hierarchy, and the ethos that held it together. Using
primary source material, she reconstructs the life of the 30th Foot,
and the lives of the men who served in it during a critical period
in Europe’s military history.
