Item description from seller
1949, fourth impression. vii, 214pp. "Whatever their status geographically, no military history can ignore the part that (the islands of Great Todday and Little Todday) played in home defence. Keep the Home Guard Turning is an account of some of the exploits of the islands' Home Guard - exploits concerned less with the defeat of the enemy than with the outflanking of the civil and military hierarchy on the mainland." ("Altogether a most hilarious affair" - Sunday Times.) Publisher's blue cloth with gilt titles to spine. Some spotting to the spine. Top edge slightly dusty. Book is otherwise in very good condition. All contents are tight and clean with no inscriptions.
