Guest Posted 14 January , 2016 Share Posted 14 January , 2016 Book: The Old Contemptibles: A Photographic History of the British Expeditionary Force August - Decemeber 1914 by Keith Simpson I have never seen this before. Published in 1981. Found it in an Oxfam shop for £2. Remarkable. 176 Photos, most of which I have never seen before. A definite buy. MG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
