Notes
This book is a straightforward history of this battalion, which was a Territorial one, in fact it was the only Territorial battalion of this regiment to serve in France. The battalion, along with other under-strength units, was disbanded in the Spring of 1916, against a promise that a significant number of men would be drafted to the 1st (regular) battalion, which was the only Cameronian Highlanders unit with more seniority than the 4th. The battalion, whilst it was at the front between February 1915 and March 1916, was a typical, steady, Highland unit.
