520 _a"The Story of the '9th King's' in France" by Enos Herbert Glynne Roberts is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work chronicles the experiences of the 9th Battalion of the King's Liverpool Regiment from its formation during the Volunteer Movement in 1859 through its significant involvement in World War I. The book likely focuses on the battalion's journey, training, and experiences in various campaigns, detailing the challenges faced by the soldiers in the trenches as well as the camaraderie among them. The opening of the narrative introduces the formation of the 80th Lancashire Rifle Volunteers in Liverpool, which later became known as the 9th Battalion of The King's Liverpool Regiment. It highlights the initial enthusiasm of the volunteers, their recruitment process, and the early days of training, culminating in their mobilization in August 1914 as Britain entered the war. The account sets the stage for the battalion's deployment to the front lines, detailing their first experiences with military organization, the struggles of wartime logistics, and the bonds formed among men facing uncertainty together.
