    The Grand Party - Maj Graham Brooks MC
    (published by Hutchinson) is the story of 366 Battery 140 Field Regt. 366 Bty came back from France but 367 Bty and Reg HQ were captured at Cassel.
    Try abebooks.co.uk for a copy - not expensive.

    An unusual one:

    Leeds Gunners WW2 - Forty Years On: Personal Memoir of War Service 1939-1945 in 273 Field Battery RA TA, and RHQ of 69 Field Regiment RA TA by Nigel W Richardson

    A privately-published memoir (one of eleven copies!) this one having been presented to Brig F P Barclay DSO MC, CO of 4 LINCOLN who were 273 Bty's usual partners.
    Coincidentally, there is also a 4 LINCOLN history: Saturday Night Soldiers: The 4th Lincolns in World War II by John Benson, co-author of All the King's Enemies: The Remarkable Deeds of the Lincolnshire Gunners (60 Fd Regt))

    A new book, and an excellent one! Richmond Gorle, M.C., R.A. fought through North Africa and Sicily, and then in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, with 128 and 181 Field Regiments, R.A. He died in 1971, having written the manuscript for his family in 1958, and it has been edited by his son, Peter. It's published by Pen and Sword.

    Sorry Rob, think I must have bumped the price up on that one! Glad I didn't win it though, as I have since realised I have a reprint of it in my collection (although the last few pages are missing).

    Phil:huh:
