Malcolm Keith Johnson

Malcolm K. Johnson has researched the history of the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry (KOYLI) for over thirty years. In two published works he explored the experiences of a Volunteer battalion, and its Territorial battalions, who were ill-prepared for the industrialised warfare of 19141918\. A third book examined the social effect of that war on an ordinary Yorkshire family. He has published a photographic history of KOYLI, 1857-1968, and the final volume of the Regiments History, 1945-1968\. He has an MA degree from the University of Birmingham in First World War Studies.
