Recently picked up this French Soldiers Identification book. Excuse me for my ignorance but what is the proper terminology/what these books actually called?

I was hoping one of our French speaking members might be able to translate/tell me a little bit about this soldier.

Thanks,

Matt

I would guess "carte d'identité" or perhaps better is "livret d'iidentité" but our true France French speakers can probably confirm what was used.
 
Thanks Peter, I picked this book up along with this large Officers document group, photographs, badges, buttons, ID bracelet/dogtags etc...

Vert nice personal set:!I would read the French text as following: 30 december 1915, hit by a gun bullet right side in his belly, which resulted in a penetrating wound with debris in his abdomen from parts of the shelter
