Dust Jacket Collector Posted 4 October , 2020 Share Posted 4 October , 2020 Very impressive. Looks comprehensive to me. I have a number of the books you list but plenty more to search for now. Will let you know if I have any not there but I doubt it. Congratulations. Link to post Share on other sites
Maureene Posted 4 October , 2020 Author Share Posted 4 October , 2020 Well done Keith for all the hard work. Congratulations on the release. Cheers Maureen Link to post Share on other sites
Gardenerbill Posted 5 October , 2020 Share Posted 5 October , 2020 Excellent work Keith and a valuable resource for the Salonika campaign researcher. Link to post Share on other sites
Jervis Posted 5 October , 2020 Share Posted 5 October , 2020 Well done Keith, that is a brilliant resource. I hope you don’t mind these late suggestions: (sorry I only noticed this thread now) Forward the rifles memoirs by Capt. David Campbell 6th Royal Irish Rifles The Diaries of Capt Noel Drury 6th Royal Dublin Fusiliers The history of the Leinster Regiment by Lt Col Whitton; specifically the chapters on 1st & 6th battalions Link to post Share on other sites
keithmroberts Posted 6 October , 2020 Share Posted 6 October , 2020 Thanks here to Jervis, who has provided me with two titles to add for the next release. By PM he has given me sufficient info to justify the leinster volume, (some regimental histories just have only a very few pages, which really would add little. I do welcome information about published works that I have missed, which will be added to the 2021 update, along with any corrections or helpful notes on titles that are listed without additional notes.

Gardenerbill Posted 7 October , 2020 Share Posted 7 October , 2020 Hi Keith, Another one you might consider for the next version: HISTORY OF THE EAST LANCASHIRE REGIMENT IN THE GREAT WAR NICHOLSON, C. LOTHIAN (Author) MACMULLEN, H.T. (Author) Littlebury (Publisher) Part IX covers the 9th Battalion who served in Salonika and has 59 pages in 10 chapters. Link to post Share on other sites
voltaire60 Posted 7 October , 2020 Share Posted 7 October , 2020 KR- Tripped over this on www.archive.org, while looking for something else. Searched on your bibl. under "Convoy" but nothing coming up- I will have a little trawl to see if there are other runs,etc of this little mag. out there Link to post Share on other sites
voltaire60 Posted 7 October , 2020 Share Posted 7 October , 2020 A little bit more. Worldcat lists some more issues - the surviving issues seem, very helpfully, to have been digitised anyway, which may be a help. and the top of the titlepage for the first of those issues: Link to post Share on other sites
keithmroberts Posted 13 October , 2020 Share Posted 13 October , 2020 Thanks for those, they look interesting. Although only a few pages, they are standalone items and I think worth adding to the next release. I had just been looking at the ones on Canadiana myself. Keith Link to post Share on other sites
keithmroberts Posted 25 October , 2020 Share Posted 25 October , 2020 So far I have 4 additional titles to add for the 2021 release, (treating the three editions of Convoy as one entry). Any further suggestions will be most welcome. Keith Link to post Share on other sites
voltaire60 Posted 25 October , 2020 Share Posted 25 October , 2020 As you asked......... This little beastie might qualify. I think it on Hathi Trust as digital but I print a lot description from Christies when a run came up a while back: The Kia-Ora Cooee. The official magazine of the Australian and New-Zealand Forces in Egypt, Palestine, Salonica & Mesopotamia, Cairo: March 15th-December 15th 1918, first series part I-IV and second series part I-VI [all published], 4°, illustrations (several leaves in part II misbound), original pictorial wrappers (minor spotting), together with -- The Kia Ora Coo-Eee News [n.p.]: September 4th-December 18th, 1918, number 3 and 5-18 only, 4° (occasional light browning), stapled, preserved in buckram case. [BUCOP lists nos. 1-4 of first series and no. 1 only of second series, no issues of the newsletter are recorded] Link to post Share on other sites
voltaire60 Posted 25 October , 2020 Share Posted 25 October , 2020 There are also these items that are in the National Library of Scotland.

charlie962 Posted 25 October , 2020 Share Posted 25 October , 2020 A brief account of 'Coming out of the Line ' by Capt RKM Simpson RFA was posted a few years back in this thread by Skipman Link to post Share on other sites
voltaire60 Posted 25 October , 2020 Share Posted 25 October , 2020 A trawl through stuff at IWM (should it ever open again....... ) shows the following for consideration: I suspect, as you intimate, that there is some more Salonica stuff in those little memoirs published across all the decades but it may need some systematic searching by regiments and units engaged to pick some of the up. Simpson's "Coming Out of the Line" -mentioned by Charlie, is one that has eluded the British Library- Copyright deposit is a bit hit and miss on these sort of things.

Maureene Posted 16 November , 2020 Author Share Posted 16 November , 2020 This book was mentioned in another recent topic. On The Anvil by Leslie Ingram Crawford 1929. At least some of it is about Macedonia, see https://blogs.fcdo.gov.uk/ukinnorthmacedonia/2018/11/06/bringing-people-together-through-history/ which states the author, L.I. Crawford, was a Captain with the 9th South Lancashire Regiment The book is classified as fiction in https://www.readinkbooks.com/product/19939/On-the-Anvil-Crawford-Leslie-Ingram Link to post Share on other sites

I think I may have it somewhere. Yes-exactly so. The ABC-CLIO bibliographies were designed to appeal to moderate sized public reference libraries and above. I recall there is another one done by the Australian War memorial- will try to dig out the details. As KR has pretty much finished Salonika and got the hang of the job, then we should look to keeping him fully employed. Labours of Hercules....... one down Link to post Share on other sites
MartH Posted 19 November , 2020 Share Posted 19 November , 2020 There are Bibliographies on Australian Infantry Units (1996) , The Galliploli Campaign. A Select Bibliography, RMC Duntron 1990, Fiona McLeod, There is a Canadian version too. Link to post Share on other sites

I have a spreadsheet that aggregates the bibliographies of van Hartesveldt and Fiona McLeod, plus some additions of my own. But it needs work! Voltaire60, volunteering?
