Signalling and Map Reading for the Home Guard by H.G. Stokes, an original Second World War Home Guard training manual made even more interesting by the period inscription "Lieutnant J.O" prominently marked on the cover.

A fascinating piece of British wartime history, this practical handbook was produced to train members of the Home Guard in essential military skills including signalling, map reading, field communications and navigation. During the war these skills were vital for local defence units throughout Britain and Ireland.

What makes this example particularly attractive is the inscription, giving the book a strong period identity and suggesting official use during the wartime years. 

Features:

• Original WW2 Home Guard training manual
• Written by H.G. Stokes
• Covers signalling and map reading techniques
•  Inscription to cover
• Authentic wartime military reference book
• Excellent collector's item for Home Guard, British Army and WW2 memorabilia enthusiasts

A lovely and increasingly scarce piece of Home Guard history that would make an excellent addition to any collection of British military, Home Front or Second World War memorabilia.
