Default Holy expletive deleted!

That sound you hear is me slapping my forehead as a punishment for my own stupidity. I have ordered books from other Cdn kitshops in the past but it never dawned on me to check out the RCD one. Guess I cannot trust AddALL for everything! Do you have any further info on the pictorial history, i.e ISBN, author, etc. I am primarily a modeller so a picture (to me) really is worth a thousand words although I did just order their available history.
Cheers, (building my Canadian library one book at a time) Dave

Default Pictoral History Info

Dave,
BTW my copy is soft cover.

The book is published by the Guild of the RCD and printed in Canada by Annex Printing 300 Argyle Ave Delhi ON N4B 2Y1 (this is printed on the inside title page)

Copies can be ordered from:
The Royal Canadian Dragoons
Worthington Barracks
CFB Petawawa
PO Box 9999 Station Main
Petawawa ON K8H 2X3

www.renc.igs.net/~dragoons

ISBN 0-9691281-1-8

It does have great modelling reference photos; Dingos, Staghounds, Daimlers Halftracks... I really like the training photo from the Volturno area as it has Staghounds, Heavy Halftracks, you can make out Dingos in the forward position of the photo and it even has White armoured trucks.

Default So near and yet

so far away. Of course it's long OOP and copies start @ $50.00. AFAIK it's in softcover only. Unfortunately the links are long since dead, last updated in 2006. Still, I'm head 'n shoulders above where I was a few hours ago. At least I know what to look for. Many thanks again for the leads!
Cheers, Dave
