Description
Hardcover, bright red cloth cover with a pebbled texture, the text on the spine in gold-coloured ink, entitled "The C.A.M.C. with the Canadian Corps during the Last Hundred Days of the Great War", by Colonel A.E. Snell, C.M.G., D.S.O., M.A., M.B., Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps (late D.D.M.S. Canadian Army Corps), based on material and maps supplied by the Historical Section of the General Staff, published by authority of the Honourable E.M. Macdonald, Minister of National Defence, printed by F.A. Acland, Printer to the King's Most Excellent Majesty in 1924. It begins with an Introduction by Major-General J.T. Fotheringham, where he states that it might be "the first contribution made by the Canadian Medical Service to the literature of training. It is full of the kind of experience that will make it valuable, if not exactly as a Manual, yet as a source from which Tactical and Administrative problems can be studied by coming generations of Medical Officers.", followed by a Table of Contents and a List of Abbreviations. The book details medical support to the Canadian advance during the momentous closing days of the war. In contrast to the intimate approach used in contemporary accounts of the C.A.M.C. (Adami, Nasmith, Bell), Snell offers a detached, operational perspective - in short, that of the Deputy Director Medical Services, whose role it was to guide and support medical operations during the final offensive. It is divided into twelve chapters: I - Organization, Administration and Functions of C.A.M.C.; II - Withdrawal from the Line at Arras and Move to Amiens Area; III - Taking Over the Line, Medical Arrangements and Narrative of the Battle, August 8; IV - Continued Operations towards Roye, August 9 to 13; V - Work in Rear Corps Area and Summary of the Battle of Amiens; VI - Move, Amiens to Arras; Medical Arrangements and Narrative of the Battle, August 26 to September 1; VII - Drocourt-Queart Operations; VIII - Work in Rear Corps Area. Arras; IX - Preparations for the Operations from Canal du Nord to Cambrai; X - Fighting around Cambrai, including the Canal du Nord, Bourlon Wood and Iwuy, September 27 to October 11; XI - The Pursuit to Valenciennes, Battle of Mont Houy and Advance to Mons; XII - The Armistice and Advance to the Rhine. It concludes with four Appendices, with a pocket placed on the inside back cover housing seven maps: Map 1 - Concentration and Moves of Medical Units, Amiens and Arras, August 1918; Map 2 - Employment of Medical Units, Amiens, 7th to 19th August 1918; Map 3 - Employment of Medical Units, Arras, 26th August to 3rd September 1918; Map 4 - Employment of Medical Units, Canal du Nord - Cambrai, 27th September - 11th October 1918; Map 5 - Readjustment of Medical Dispositions, Arras Cambrai - Final Advance, 5th September - 18th October 1918; Map 6 - Employment of Medical Units, Denain - Valenciennes - Mons, 12th October - 11th November 1918; Map 7 - Area of Canadian Corps Operations, Amiens - Rhine, July - December 1918. The book contains 304 pages of text, printed in black ink, on an off-white paper stock, with seven maps inserted into a pocket placed on the inside back cover, each of the maps printed in black ink on a white paper stock, measuring 170 mm (w) x 253 mm (h) x 25 mm (d), weighing 1 kilogram. It exhibits light soiling along with discolouration on the cover, especially on the spine, however, the pages and maps within remain unaffected. Very fine.
