Hello Mike

What exactly is in the book - a medal roll or text or both?

Could you give the title - the ebay listing is pretty rubbish.

Thanks

Hi Meurig.......

The book has a number of pages explaining the QSA and different bars, naming styles etc...... Just what you would expect......

The roll has the number on the medal register, the regimental number, rank, name, previous regiment or location of enlistment, what bars he is entitled to and any remarks, i.e. wounded, killed, etc.

It was published in a limited edition (Economy Edition) of 1000 which this one is and (Delux Edition) of 50.......

Thanks Mike, I see now this is the oft-quoted "Roncetti roll".
