Jarvis Posted 16 November , 2006 Share Posted 16 November , 2006 In researching my grandads Army Service I am seeking information on the ASC in particular the 11th Division. Whilst trawling around the net I have come across the following statement : Col Michael Young's history, the 'Army Service Corps 1902-1918' is probably the best today; 194 pages of text, plus pages 195-406 Annexs & index. It was published by Leo Cooper (Pen & Sword) in 2000. The ref is ISBN 085052 739 9 Has any one got or read this book. If so, is there much in the way of reference to the 11th Division in there ? My hard earned has a long way to travel and I need to be selective in what I buy. feedback anyone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Fisher Posted 16 November , 2006 Share Posted 16 November , 2006 I have this book, it's a very good work on the ASC, although slightly hard work for the casual reader. There's no mention in the index of 11th Division, although the text and tables have references to the individual companies. I'll have a look....
