    That cover the 1940 France and Flanders Campaign in some detail.

    I've listed below the Infantry Battalions that served in France to help anyone identify what histories I'm after. I want to get the original hardbacks to rather than re published softbacks by Military Press etc. so if you could put the title and author against the regiment that would be brilliant.

    You're setting yourself a huge task there Andy. Does Andrea know what you're plotting ? :unsure:

    That said, I have the impression that the prices of the immediate post-war regimental histories are softening at the moment. Perhaps, rather sadly, the last of the original purchasers are giving up their collections but the value is still sufficient to make them of interest to the trade

    Northamptonshire Regt.

    2nd Battalion :-

    "A History of the 58th 1939 - 1945" - Major R S Wallis ? - Gale & Polden 1947

    2nd & 5th Battalions :-

    "The History of the Northamptonshire Regt. 1934 - 1948" - Brigadier W J Jervois - The Regimental History Committee - 1953

    "The Fifth British Division 1939 - 1945" - George Aris - 5th Div Benevolent Fund 1959

    2 Wiltshire Regiment (Duke of Edinburgh's)

    The story of the Wiltshire Regiment (Duke of Edinburgh's) - Colonel N.C.E. Kenrick D.S.O.

    That's all the Machine Gun Battalions apart from the territorial Manchesters. I'd also recommend Volume 2 of 'The Tanks: The history of the Royal Tank Regiment' as it covers a lot of the armoured actions in that period.

    Regards

    Cheers Jim, Richard and Rich,

    Of course Divisional Histories are also welcomed.

    I decided to take on these books after Idler found the cause of death for RSM Bacon in a regimental history book and there was nothing close in the 1940 war diary.

    Andrea is currently distracted for the foreseeable future looking for curtains and the like.

    You do realise that you're only supposed to have one mortgage on the house?

    These are the histories (to the best of my knowledge) that cover the infantry units in the BEF orbat. I'm not saying that they have much to say on the campaign...

    It'll definitely be curtains for you if Andrea finds out!

    The Grenadier Guards in the war of 1939-1945. Patrick Forbes, Gale and Polden 1949 vol 1 The Campaigns in North West Europe. No Dishonourable Name, The 2nd and 3rd Battalions Coldstream Guards in France, North Africa and Italy, 1939-1946 D.C. Quilter, London William Clowes and son Ltd 1947. Welsh Guards at War by Major L. F. Ellis 1946. I mention this book after reading this in the link that follows it. The 1st Battalion Welsh Guards marched in to Arras on the 17th May 1940 and held this position until the 24th of May 1940 when they were ordered to withdraw eventually reaching Dunkirk. A full account of how this was achieved can be found in Source 1 (p89).

    Cheers chaps-well done Andy for killing the thread with the spread sheet :D


    I do have a question though-Would I be better getting 1st or later editions? My thinking is its always nice to have 1st edition books but factually would the later edition be more accurate regarding the units history as more information became available?

    That's not going to be a major problem, I can't think of any 'revised' editions of the original regimental histories (awaits correction...)

    The choice - if there is one - will be between first editions and reprints. NMP-style facsimiles can suffer from less-than-brilliant reproduction of maps and photos but that may not be a major consideration for the little bit you're interested in.

    Drew5233 #FuturePilot 1940 Obsessive

    Thanks-I'm steering clear of NMP. I bought their print of The War in France and Flander by Ellis- A week later I got a copy of the original with all the maps including the one in the wallet at the rear, no competition. It worth paying the extra IMO for the original.
