| Summary | "Historical Record of the Seventieth, or, the Surrey Regiment of Foot" by Richard Cannon is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This book chronicles the formation and military service of the Surrey Regiment from its establishment in 1758 through its later actions up until 1848. The likely topic of the book revolves around the regiment's operational history, including its battles, movements, and the experiences of its officers and soldiers during various conflicts. The narrative details the origin of the Seventieth Regiment as a formation from the second battalion of the Thirty-first Regiment. It outlines the regiment's deployments, notable engagements during the Seven Years' War, its operations in North America during the American Revolutionary War, and service in the West Indies. It also highlights key leaders within the regiment, recounting their promotions and contributions to its legacy. The text serves both as a tribute to the soldiers of the regiment and as a historical document that offers insights into the broader military history of Britain during this period.
