Add to basketFirst edition. One of presumably a small number of copies specially bound for presentation. With a typed letter signed by A.W. Prince Controller of the Expeditionary Force Canteens to General Henry Horne, dated 14th May 1919. "Sir, I beg to transmit herewith a specially bound copy of a brochure descriptive of the Organisation in… the various theatres of War, which I trust that you will do me the honour of accepting. I venture to think that the account of the work which has been carried on during the last four years may prove of interest to you" 8vo., in deluxe red morocco, lettered in gilt on spine with gilt border and lettering on upper board. A little restoration to foot of spine and a little scraping to lower board, otherwise a very good copy. The fore-runner to the NAAFI, the EFC was formed to provide a solution to the problem of supplying and feeding British forces on a scale never before experienced caused by the outbreak of the First World War. "The Expeditionary Force Canteens has provided some measure of comfort and respite to the Officers and other ranks of the Armies in France, Italy, Gallipoli, Salonica, Mesopotamia, Egypt and east of the Suez Canal". The recipient of this specially bound copy, General Henry Sinclair Horne, 1st Baron Horne, was a military officer in the British Army, most notable for his generalship during the First World War. He was the only British artillery officer to command an army in the war.
