FROGSMILE Posted 2 June , 2021 Share Posted 2 June , 2021 I think that must be the same Tom Bridges who saved the notorious situation at St Quentin on 27 August 1914. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 3 June , 2021 Share Posted 3 June , 2021 Thanks Maureene, I have quite a number of titles to add to the second release, which hopefully will be at the end of september, to co-incide with the SCS Annual Meeting and the anniversary of the armistice with Bulgaria.

seaJane Posted 5 June , 2021 Share Posted 5 June , 2021 I may have unearthed a few more Serbia-oriented titles in the latest update to the Medicine + Health bibliography - on the other hand I have not been checking them against each other, so you may already have them. But ctrl-F Serbia should flag them up easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 5 June , 2021 Share Posted 5 June , 2021 I can't understand this. All doctors are supposed to be unable to write properly, and I find more medical material about the campaign that anything else! I'll check them out, thank you, K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seaJane Posted 21 June , 2021 Share Posted 21 June , 2021 I have at least one edition of Olive King's book in the Healthcare and medicine bibliography, but thank you @MaureenE for the link to the biographical material, which I'd missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 29 September , 2021 Share Posted 29 September , 2021 Release 2 of the bibliography will be posted on the Salonika Campaign Society Website within a few days. I will post a fresh topic once that has happened, and close this thread. Thanks to everyone who has suggested additional titles. I will be aiming for a further release at a similar date in 2022, so will always be grateful for further suggestions. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 7 October , 2021 Share Posted 7 October , 2021 (edited) Release 2 of the bibliography has now been posted, so I will close this topic, and start a new one. I won't close the thread because I didn't start it. I will however start a new topic. Keith The second release of the bibliography can be found here https://salonikacampaignsociety.org.uk/publications-and-dvds/bibliography/ The additions and changes from the first edition are italicised.

Charley Garratts story concerning his life and time spent with the Derbyshire Yeomanry. No, I have never heard of it. I'm struggling to find it in WorldCat and viaLibri., but have found this in JISC https://discover.libraryhub.jisc.ac.uk/search?title=Charley's tale&rn=2 Could this be the first edition although it is dated 1986 not 1988 as on the book cover? If you have a copy, would it be possible to send me images of the title and contents pages please, and if there is an ISBN number declared anywhere that would be good.

Sgt Stripes Posted 3 August , 2022 Share Posted 3 August , 2022 This is all there is 1993 edition. There are four photographs none of them in Salonika but one is of A Squadron in Norfolk. Early 1915. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmroberts Posted 3 August , 2022 Share Posted 3 August , 2022 (edited) Thank you both. I think that is quite enough for the bibliography; some of these rare titles are very hard to track down. I think the disparity in page numbers listed could either involve recording errors, or differing types of production between editions. What is for sure is that the booklet is now quite rare.

keithmroberts Posted 3 August , 2022 Share Posted 3 August , 2022 Thanks Alan, but I think I now have enough for the limited info needed for the notes section of the bibliography. Sgt Stripes has confirmed from the text that he served in Gallipoli with the unit before it went to Salonika, but I will certainly add the information about his audio contribution, which whould be easier to find for most than the booklet. I'll hopefully listen myself this evening. That is a real find. Thanks again. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
