The Royal Warrant Of The 6th October, 1854

The book ""The Royal Warrant Of The 6th October, 1854: And Its Effect On The Lieutenant-Colonels Of The Army Who Had Obtained That Rank Before The 20th Of June, 1854"" was written by James Lindsay and published in 1857. The book discusses the impact of a royal warrant issued on October 6th, 1854, on the rank of lieutenant-colonels in the British Army who had obtained their rank before June 20th, 1854. The warrant changed the way in which promotions were awarded, and this had significant implications for those who had already achieved the rank of lieutenant-colonel. The book explores the historical context of the warrant, as well as its practical effects on the careers and lives of the affected officers. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the British Army, military promotions, or the social and political context of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
