Arthur Conan Doyle. The British Campaign in France and Flanders 1914. Hodder & Stoughton, 1916.
Price: US$24.27 + shipping
Condition: Good
Description: Good, but fabric loose over rear upper spine, some foxing, one minor tear but text unaffected. pgs 334, maps complete. First volume of Conan Doyle's detailed history of the Great War covering the important initial battles and the "formation" of the Western Front in 1914 starting with the battle of Mons, followed by Le Cateau, the Marne, and the Aisne, ending with La Bassee and the first battle of Ypres. The author wrote this extensive history as the war progressed, therefore this text represents a "true" view of the war without the great benefit of knowing the ultimate outcome.
