The History of the 36th (Ulster) Division by Cyril Falls
"The History of the 36th (Ulster) Division" by Cyril Falls is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the formation, training, and battles of the 36th (Ulster) Division during World War I, focusing on their experiences on the Western Front, specifically in France and Flanders. It aims to capture not only military events but also the personal experiences and camaraderie of the troops, portraying their courage and
resilience amid the horrors of war. At the start of the narrative, the author sets the stage by addressing the historical context preceding the division's formation in 1914. He explains the rise of the Ulster Volunteer Force, initiated as a local response to threats perceived by the Protestant population of Ulster, and how this force evolved into the 36th Division. The opening portion emphasizes the spirit of loyalty and unity among the men of Ulster, detailing their enthusiastic recruitment and preparation for war. It highlights key figures in the division's inception, including Sir Edward Carson, and outlines their early training experiences, contrasting their idealism with the harsh realities they would soon face in combat.
