The 59th North Midland, a Territorial division, was formed in January 1915. It served in Ireland following the Easter Uprising in April 1916. In March 1917 it was sent to France, serving on the Western Front at Ypres, Cambrai, St Quentin, Bapaume, Baileul and Kemmel Ridge during the German offensive on the Lys, Amiens and in the final advance in Artois and Flanders. This account describes brigade operations against Sinn Fein in Dublin, examples of acts of gallantry, plus a summary of the divisional record from formation to armistice. Also includes a table of the divisions movements and locations.
