This is a very interesting, old piece of military memorabilia. This book was published during the post World War I era. This book was published in 1919 by command of General Pershing. The soft cover book measures 6 1/8 inches by 9 ½ inches and contains 88 pages. The cover shows signs of fading. The cover is present but not attached. The cover shows minor signs of wear. The cover is split down from the top edge approximately 4 inches. The pages show no signs of rips or foxing. Exceptions noted, the overall condition of this book is near very good.

Note: The table of contents is quite extensive. I will list only main chapter headings and would be glad to answer specific questions upon request.
