520 _a"The History of the Rifle Brigade (the Prince Consort's Own) Formerly the 95th" by Sir William H. Cope is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed chronicle of the Rifle Brigade's formation, notable engagements, and significant figures within the regiment, highlighting their military campaigns and contributions. It serves as a tribute to the bravery and competence of the soldiers and the evolution of military tactics surrounding this elite corps. The opening of the work details the origins of the Rifle Brigade, illustrating the proposal made to the government by Colonel Coote Manningham and Lieutenant-Colonel William Stewart for a corps of riflemen. It describes the initial assembly of troops in 1800, the Corps' training at various camps, and their early engagements, including actions in Ferrol and Copenhagen. The text emphasizes the rigorous training and discipline instilled in these early riflemen, setting the stage for the regiment's distinguished service throughout various campaigns in Europe and beyond.
