First Edition: 490 pages, frontispiece portrait of Her Majesty Victoria, 91 plates, full brown leather decorated in gold and blind on upper cover and spine, patterned endpapers, all edges gilt, a very good copy.
From the Author's Preface: Part I of this book, "From Quebec to Bloemfontein," deals entirely with the work done by the First Contingent; Part II, "From Bloemfontein to Canada via Pretoria," describes not only the work of the First Contingent, but that of the Second and of the Strathcona's Horse as well. It has been thought proper to add an appendix giving the names of all the officers and men of the Royal Canadian Regiment of Infantry, the Canadian Mounted Rifles, the Royal Canadian Artillery, and the Strathcona's Horse. An honour roll of those who have died on the field of battle and in the hospital has likewise been given.'
