Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 2nd Edition. Interest in the Victoria Cross continues unabated by the general public as well as military historians and medal enthusiasts. Victoria Crosses, singly or as part of a medal group, regularly come up for auction but more and more of these highly regarded decorations have been finding their Way by bequest, sale or loan to national, regimental and local museums and other public bodies. There has been a demand for some time for information on the location of Victoria Cross groups and this is an attempt to answer that demand. This is the second edition of this highly regarded Work. The authors are Dennis Pillinger, member of the Committee of the Military Historical Society and Custodian of the Society's Lummis VC & GC Files and Anthony Staunton, a member of the Military Historical Society and Federal Councillor of the Military Historical Society of Australia. Although this work is published by the authors themselves, it is believed to be the first joint publication by committee members of the United Kingdom and Australian Military Historical Societies. Both authors are also members of the Orders and Medals Research Society. B21.…
