"The History of the Twentieth (Light) Division" by Captain V. E. Inglefield is a historical account published in the early 20th century. This book chronicles the formation, training, and operations of the 20th (Light) Division during World War I, detailing notable battles and the contributions of various army units involved in the conflict. The narrative emphasizes the dedication and bravery of the soldiers while highlighting the logistical and operational challenges they faced. The opening of the book lays the foundation for the history of the 20th Division, detailing its establishment shortly after the outbreak of World War I in August 1914 in response to Lord Kitchener's call for recruits. It describes the initial challenges of assembling the division, such as shortages of uniforms and weapons, while also noting the enthusiasm of the volunteers eager to fight. The training phase is depicted, showcasing the efforts of key leaders and staff who worked diligently to transform a group of newly recruited soldiers into an effective fighting force before their departure to France. The groundwork set in this opening portion establishes a focus on both the personal and collective experiences of those in the division throughout the war.
