Victoria Cross Bibliography

Book condition: Like new.

Many books have been written about the Victoria Cross and its recipients. The first published work on the subject appeared in 1857 - the same year as the first VC investiture. In recent years, a resurgence of interest has led to the publication of numerous new titles and others are scheduled for publication or are under preparation. Untill now there has been no comprehensive bibliography of the Victoria Cross. This volume represents the efforts of a team of researchers in the UK, Canada and Australia.

Part 1 contains a listing of all key VC titles each with a description and annotation.

Part 2 lists non-fiction and fictional books written by VC recipients.

The index lists, in alphabetical order, every VC recipient and records the date of the London Gazette citation. Additionaly it identifies the books in which the recipients are referred to significantly, enabling the researcher to quickly identify key works.

The bibliography is an important contribution to Victoria Cross literature and is an essential reference to anyone with an interest in the decoration.
