    General Sir Bindon Blood GCB, GCVO. Colonel Commandant RE from 1914 to 1940 and Chief Royal Engineer from 1936-1940 HISTORY 01;’THE CORPS OF ROYAL ENGINEERS VOLUME IV by BRIGADIER-GENERALW. BAKERBROWN CHATHAM THE INSTITUTION OF ROYAL ENGINEERS 1952 PREFACE A FEW words are necessary to explain the reasons for the publica- tion of this volume which covers the period from 1885 to the out- break of the Great War in 1914. Three volumes of Corps history have already appeared ; Volumes I and 11, which were written by Major-General Whitworth Porter, cany the history from the Norman Conquest to 1886, and Volume 111, written by Sir Charles Watson, carries on the history from 1886 nominally to 1912. It necessarily happens that when a history is written closely after the events recorded the most recent events are not seen in proper perspective. Both Volumes I1 and I11 were completed at periods which were critically important in the history of the Corps, Whitworth Porter’s volume I1 ending at a time when a very large increase was being made to the Corps both of officers and men, and Watson’s volume I11 ending during the period of the changes in Army organizatim introduced in 1905 and 1906. There is internal evidence that Watson intended to expand his volume, as some subjects, such as Fortification, arellot touched on. Such expansion was prevented by the outbreak of the war in 1914 and by his own death in 1915. The History of Submarine Mining in the British Army, compiled by the present writer, was published in 1912 and covers the history in some detail of the large portion of the Corps, nearly one quarter of the whole, which was employed in the Submarine Mining Service ; the history covers the work of this branch from its early beginnings in 1863 to its breaking up in 1905.

It provides military engineering and other technical support to the British Armed Forces and is headed by the Chief Royal Engineer. The Regimental Headquarters and the Royal School of Military Engineering are in Chatham in Kent, England.

  • Displaying Colonial Relations: from Government House in Fiji to the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology Anita Herle*
    Museum & Society, 16 (2) 279 Displaying Colonial Relations: from Government House in Fiji to the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology Anita Herle* Abstract This paper focuses on the assemblage and display of Fijian collections at Government House during the first few years of British colonial rule and considers its re-presentation in the exhibition Chiefs & Governors: Art and Power in Fiji (6 June 2013 – 19 April 21014) at the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (MAA). It moves beyond reductionist accounts of colonial collecting and investigates the specificity and nuances of complex relationships between Fijian and British agents, between subjects and objects, both in the field and in the museum. A focus on the processes of collecting and display highlights multiple agencies within colonial networks and the fluid transactional nature of object histories. The Fijian objects that bedecked the walls of Government House from the mid 1870s were re-assembled in 1883 as the founding ethnographic collections of the University of Cambridge Museum of General and Local Archaeology (now MAA). Ethnographic museums have tended to efface the links between the material on display and their colonial pasts (Edwards and Mead 2013). In contrast, the creation of Chiefs & Governors was used as an opportunity to attend to the materiality the objects and explore the multiple agencies within colonial relations and processes of collecting, displaying and governing (Bennett et al.2014; Cameron and McCarthy 2015). The second half of this paper analyzes the techniques and challenges involved in displaying colonial relations in a museum exhibition and considers the ongoing value of the collections for Fijian communities, cultural descendants, museum staff, researchers and broad public audiences today.
