Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

On the Western Front during the First World War, 490 men won the British Empire's highest award for gallantry, the Victoria Cross. An indispensible companion for any visitor to the First World War battlefields in France and Flanders, this concise reference book lists every VC recipient from 1914 to 1918 in alphabetical order. Each entry gives details of the individual's date of birth, background and education; enlistment, service history and unit; an account of how, when and where the VC was won; the date of announcement of the award in the London Gazette; other decorations; date and place of death, details of burial and commemoration; and the current whereabouts of the VC. A selection of maps is included to show the theatres of operations where VCs were won.
