    The History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference to the Command of Brigadier-General Frank Percy Crozier by Michael Anthony Taylor A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.

    Chapter 5 THE SOUTH-WEST counties East, south and north-west CORK -- KERRY -- west LIMERICK East CORK Cobh -- Spike Island Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth century, visitors to Ireland from Britain and the Continent were appalled at the poverty of its people, and wondered at this because so much of the land was fertile. There were many reasons for the destitution, so many that Frank O'Connor neatly sidesteps them -- but he is in little doubt of the main reason: ignorance of the true condition of Ireland, on the part of its distant government, because of the difficulties involved in visiting it [1] : Books about a country usually begin with its history. Books about Ireland which do this tend to remain unread. The misunderstandings are too many... Ultimately, perhaps, all the misunderstandings can be traced to sixty miles of salt water which stretches between Britain and Ireland. O'Connor was writing in the 1940s. Mr & Mrs Hall begin their vast, chatty, obsequious (to the English reader) but well-intentioned three-volume Ireland , a hundred years earlier (1841), with a long description of the purgatory of a pre-steam crossing to Cork. They agree with O'Connor [2] : It was not alone the miserable paucity of accommodation and utter indifference to the comfort of the passengers, that made the voyage an intolerable evil. Though it usually occupied but three or four days, frequently as many weeks were expended in making it. It was once our lot to pass a month between the ports of Bristol and Cork; putting back, every now and then, to the wretched village of Pill, and not daring to leave it even for an hour, lest the wind should change and the packet weigh anchor..

    Proceedings.1 FITZMAUBICE ON THE NILE RESERVOIB. 71 27 January, 1903. JOHN CLAREE HAWESHAW, M.A., President, in the Chair. (Paper No. 3361.) “ The Nile Reservoir, Assuan.” By MAURICEFITZMAURICE, C.M.G., B.A.I., M. Inst. C.E. WITH the exception of the northern margin of the Delta along the coast of the Mediterranean, Egypt (Fig. 1) is a country practically withoutrain, and is absolutelydependent on theNile for its water-supply.The volume of water in theriver during the wintermonths is much larger thanis requiredfor the needs of the country, and during the summer months the supply is not nearly sufficient. It istherefore not surprising thatthe con- struction of reservoirs which should enable part of the surplus winter water to be stored for use during the summer months has been a burning questionin Egypt for many years. The White Nile, coming from the great lakes of Central Africa and fed on theway by the Gazelleand Sobat rivers, joins at Khartumthe Blue Nile, which comes from the Abyssinian mountains.From the junction northward the river is known as the Nile ; and it receives its only tributary, the Atbara, at a distance of 320 kilometres (ZOO miles)north of Ehartum. The Nile enters Egypt atAssuan, 1,800 kilometres (1,125 milesj north of Khartumand 1,200 kilometres (750 miles)from the Medi- terranean; and the ancient Nilometer built here is the standard gauge as regards the state of the river. The first rise of the level of the water in theriver at Assuan appears about the endof May; and thereis then a continuousslow riseuntil theend of June, after which date it becomes more rapid (Fig.
