That would be Victor Taboika in Calgary. A great guy; he and I are good friends. He bought my entire WWII Canadian collection in one shot: 18 mannequins, all standing, head-to-foot.

ISBN 1-894581-42-3 Service Publications Canada.

The German Army on Vimy Ridge 1914-1917
Publication date is evidently March 20, 2008. ISBN is 184415680X.

Jack Sheldon is a retired British army officer who has written quite a few books now. He always writes on the German view of things. The German army on the Somme etc. all highly recommended.

Apparently, the Canadian collection book is not scheduled to be carried on Amazon. That is different.
 
taht Jack , he is a very knowledgable guy , he is on a WW1 forum i am on and has helped me with info on the 11th RJR and the 117th infantry Division.
thanks for the info Tony , well look's like i will have to put up with pic's .You sold all your WW2 Canadian kit? I am now being asked alot for what i have left. Prices are getting stupid on that now. mostly from 2 guys who have big toy's ( Armour from WW2 . Dingo, and the other a FOX).
Joe can i get the ISBN for that book , I can find it elsewhere .
