Perkins p.449: "... traces the stories of all of the regts and Bns which, from 1761 onwards, evolved into the 2nd Punjab Regt. The early years are covered in informative style, but half of the pages are devoted to services in WWII and it is here that the greatest detail is found. The author does not focus entirely upon battles and skirmishes. He also paints a clear picture of other important matters such as recruiting policy, class/race compositions, the Regtal Centre, Stations, movements, and so forth."
