MILITARY RECORDS.

Historical Record of the Buffs, 1914-1919. By Colonel R. S. H. Moody, C.B. (Medici Society. 7s. 6d. net.) Colonel Moody has written an admirable record of the work done by his famous regiment in the Great War. Nine service and territorial battalions were raised, in addition to the five existing in peace time, and eight of these fourteen saw service in France, Salonica, Mesopotamia and Palestine. The military narrative is very efficiently designed and written, and a large number of useful maps and striking illustrations add value to the work, which is excellently produced and sold at a very moderate price, thanks in great measure to the exertions by which Major Tomlinson obtained a large advance subscription.
