    • Focusing on the often-overlooked Territorial Force during the Great War, this book highlights their crucial role in the Allied victory. Commonly referred to as 'Saturday Night Soldiers,' these troops were equally matched with New Army divisions and were the first reinforcements for regular forces in 1914. By exploring their contributions, the author seeks to correct the historical neglect of the TF and emphasize their significance in the war effort.
