The Postal History of the British Army in World War I:
Before and After - 1903 to 1929

by Alistair Kennedy & George Crabb.

This title was first published in 1977 privately by George Crabb in a limited edition of only 600. It quickly established itself as the definitive postal history book on the BEF in World War I.

Over the years it has appeared for sale at book auctions and has maintained its popularity.

As a direct result of its publication more information on postmarks and censor markings has come to light and some has been published. 'Kennedy & Crabb' (as this title is affectionately known to postal historians) has not been surpassed, however, containing as it does a wealth of information that has stood the ultimate test. It is still regarded as the definitive tome on the subject.

Sadly George Crabb died three years ago and among his possessions was discovered a very small number of sets of pages forming the first part of 'Kennedy & Crabb' in pristine condition.

With permission from his family and as a tribute to a great postal historian, we have reproduced the second part of the book and bound the two parts together in similar binding and covers to the original.

You now have the opportunity to acquire a full copy of the title which is of 300 pages, A4 size, spiral bound, and well illustrated with cancellations, censor marks and maps.
