Description
 
Spiral Bound, 140 Pages.

When war broke out in August 1914, Britain found itself in desperate need of basic military equipment to arm the rapidly
expanding volunteer army in response to Lord Kitchener's "Your country needs you" campaign.
In particular there was a shortage of rifles, partly because of the huge loss of equipment in the opening months of the war.
This book chronicles the measures taken to solve the crisis at the time when every rifle counted. It also sets out some of the improvised methods found necessary to meet the demands of trench warfare.
