Regiment of the Line The Story of XX the Lancashire Fusiliers

This is the story of one of the marching regiments of the British Army - but it epitomises the history of the Infantry army itself, for the Twentieth Regiment of Foot, now the Lancashire Fusiliers, was raised in 1688 and fought at the Boyne under William of Orange; marched up the slope into the French fire at Fontenoy; stood firm against the Highland charge at Culloden.
