The History of the 51st (Highland) Division 1914-1918

"The History of the 51st (Highland) Division 1914-1918" by F. W. Bewsher is a record of the 51st (Highland) Division's journey through World War I, starting with their setup and training in Bedford, England, and following them into major battles. The story is about the division's courage and the many problems they had to deal with on the Western Front. The book explains how the soldiers and people in Bedford got along and helped each other, even when they had to deal with not having enough supplies and sickness. Bewsher, who was a Brigade Major, uses what he saw himself and what others told him to show how the division got ready to fight in France, painting a picture of hope, strength, and the tough facts of war.
