Paul Nixon Posted 9 January , 2014 Share Posted 9 January , 2014 Originally published by Leo Cooper in 1999 Now re-published by Pen & Sword at £14.99 Authoratitive work which benefits from useful appendices, extensive notes, a solid bibliography and a basic index. Purists would still want the first edition hardback but this is a good alternative and a useful resource for the WW1 bookshelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alf mcm Posted 9 January , 2014 Share Posted 9 January , 2014 I agree with Charles. It is very good indeed. I learned a lot from it, especially regarding the conflicting needs of military and civilian medical care. Regards, Alf McM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Morgan Posted 9 January , 2014 Share Posted 9 January , 2014 When I was a bookseller I could NOT sell this book no matter how much I reduced the price. I only had one copy in stock and I still have it! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom That does surprise me, when I sold my copy on Amazon about five years ago copies were quite scarce and pricey, I managed to get £55 for mine and that was after Amazon took their fee out.

Tom Morgan Posted 9 January , 2014 Share Posted 9 January , 2014 BM - I even put it on eBay with a 99p start price and it got no bids. I have no idea why as it's a great book. It's just one of those inexplicable things Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ridgus Posted 10 January , 2014 Share Posted 10 January , 2014 Not a book I had heard of, but the uniformly good reviews above will see it on to the long, long, list David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
