94 Year old book....Royal Artillery. (1 Viewer)

[waynepoo]

I was given this book by a young bloke who found it among the rubbish of an old house demolition, knowing my interest in all things military he saved it.
It is a 94 year old edition of THE ROYAL ARTILLARY. WAR COMMEMORATION BOOK published in 1930. It chronicles the history of the Royal Artillery in all theatres of the Great War. A list of VC awardees, a Roll of Honour, many color plates and drawings. The cover is showing its age but the pages are in good nick.
I have only pursued the book atm and yet to do an online search to check value etc. Hope it is of some interest to members.

WOW, what a wonderful book to be saved from the rubbish tip!!!

Being an 'Old Gunner', I would love to look through it, pity you are on the other side of the "wide brown land' but maybe if I get over your way sometime soon, I can???
