Online editions
Permalink   


After reading A Company of Tanks I wondered whether it would be worth having a list of links to editions of WWI books that are out of print or otherwise unobtainable and legally available as either a pdf download, text/HTML version, or other format.
As a starter the AWM has C.E.W. Bean's "Official History of Australia in the War of 19141918" available as seperate pdf volumes and Project Gutenburg has W.H.L. Watson's "Adventures of a Despatch-Rider" as either a text download with no images or HTML with images.

 Hello Gentleman
   Does anyone no if there is an online book  on the History of  New Zealand during the war?

All the Best

That's a good idea, Mark. Here is a direct link to the Project Gutenberg Wiki which has compiled World War One titles: http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/World_War_I_(Bookshelf)
