London: Constable & Company Limited (1922) First UK edition set in near fine condition. The spines on both volumes are a shade faded. There is browning to the first free end paper in both volumes. There are no bookplates or previous owner’s names and there is very little if any foxing. Overall a nice set.
A biography of the most senior officer, Douglas Haig. He commanded the British Expeditionary Force from 1915 to the end of the War. He was commander during the Battle of the Somme, Third Battle of Ypres, Battle of Passchendaele and hundred days offensive which led to the Armistace in 1918. A near fine set.
