Annals of Sandhurst is a comprehensive historical account of the Royal Military College, from its founding in 1801 to the present day. Written by A.F. Mockler-Ferryman, this book provides a detailed and engaging narrative of the institution's development, including its role in training officers for the British Army, as well as its unique traditions, customs, and culture. The author draws on a wide range of primary sources, including official records, personal diaries, and interviews with alumni, to give readers a vivid sense of life at Sandhurst over the past two centuries. Along the way, he examines key events and figures in the college's history, such as the Crimean War, the Boer War, and the two World Wars, as well as the contributions of notable alumni like Winston Churchill and T.E. Lawrence. With its meticulous research, lively prose, and wealth of fascinating anecdotes, Annals of Sandhurst is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of British military education and the role of Sandhurst in shaping the nation's armed forces.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
