Today the Victoria Cross remains the supreme British award for bravery. It takes precedence over all other awards & decorations. During its 160-year history since the first medals were given for gallantry during the Crimean War in the 1850s 1 357 of these medals have been won & no less than 69 of them have gone to Yorkshiremen. Alan Whitworth in this carefully researched & revealing account describes in graphic detail the exploits & the lives of this elite group of heroes. Among the roll of the brave whose gallantry & self-sacrifice are celebrated in these pages the reader will find the names & extraordinary deeds of men who were either born or bred or lived & died in Yorkshire. The first was Yorkshire-born Bombardier Thomas Wilkinson in 1857. He set an example that has been followed by generations of Yorkshire soldiers through the conflicts of the late nineteenth century
- among them the Indian Mutiny & the wars in Afghanistan & South Africa
- & then in the twentieth century in the two world wars & more recent operations in the Gulf & Afghanistan. Their stories give an unforgettable insight into the nature of heroism & into the role of individual soldiers who stand out from the ranks of men who took part in Britains many wars & campaigns. The stories of these ordinary individuals who have performed some signal act of valour or devotion to their country will be fascinating reading for anyone who is interested in military history in general & in the long military tradition of Yorkshire.
