520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "The History of the 1st Batt. Wilts Volunteers, from 1861 to 1885" by Robert Dwarris Gibney is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the formation, challenges, and evolution of the 1st Wiltshire Volunteers, an infantry battalion created during a time of national insecurity as part of Britain's effort to bolster its military defenses through civilian volunteer corps. The text offers a detailed look at how these volunteers, including their officers and men, organized, trained, and adapted in response to fluctuating governmental support and the chaotic initial stages of their establishment. At the start of the book, Gibney provides a preface explaining the unique circumstances surrounding the inception of the 1st Battalion, highlighting the urgent need for such forces due to the unprepared state of the regular army. He recounts the initial struggles, such as the lack of structure, inadequate funding, and the diverse nature of the corps that had to merge into a cohesive unit. Various early challenges, such as organizational difficulties, recruitment, and training sessions hampered by logistical issues, are discussed. Furthermore, Gibney emphasizes the importance of community support from local aristocrats, tradesmen, and women, which played a crucial role in sustaining the battalion's existence. Through various anecdotes, he sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the battalion's development over the subsequent years. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
