Does anyone happen to know where to find a copy of the above mentioned document? It seems to have been the original presentation of a number of Statistics from the Great War.

All the best

I have a copy, it has tables on various headings - strength of the army, casualties, recruitment, pensions, courts martial, horses and mules (!), army reserve, special reserve. I have it as a pdf, about 7mb. Will send you a copy if you like.

This publication, available online at archive.org, also consists of statistics

Hi, Sorry to bother you again. I'm working in Switzerland and haven't been able to obtain a copy of the General Annual Report from any other source. Would it be at all possible for you to send me the PDF? Thank you very much. -S

I know this is very very old, but for the life of me I just can't find this crucial source anywhere else on the internet. Would anyone here still happen to be active and have a copy of the PDF for this?

I'll have a look but should still have it somewhere.

 A few Google search results give General Annual Report of the British Army 1913-1919. (prepared by command of the Army Council). Parliamentary Paper 1921, XX,. Cmd.1193. 

I believe this is available through the subscription website  UK Parliamentary Papers online, or some title similar to this. (I can't access my usual source right now to check exact details.) This subscription website is available to many people with a Library card (County/ State/ National) provided the Library has subscribed for this period.

It would appear that it is accessible at The National Archives UK. It should be possible to use one of their desktop machines, and to access ProQuest via their network. That is, if your local library does not have ProQuest access.

House of Commons Parliamentary Papers, 1715–2015

Search the House of Commons Parliamentary Papers on the UK Parliamentary Papers website (institutional subscription required; free access on site at The National Archives in Kew) for accounts of debates in the House of Commons or Command Papers. Search by keyword, date and/or paper number.

I've found it. Let me know if it's still needed.

Thank you for bringing the post to my attention.

@Carmania - If it would be possible I'd also really like to get a copy of this, my father is researching for his MA and has flagged this up as something he'd be very keen to look at. He's not very good with computers so has asked me to help out!

Tried to send you a PM but the systems says I'm limited to 0 messages a day. Any help really appreciated, thanks.
