'WAR' was a series of 'restricted' pamphlets issued
fortnightly by the Army Bureau of
Current Affairs from September 1941
which provided information to officers
about progress of the war and the
activities of branches of the armed
forces in all theatres, with the
intention that they should pass
it on to the fighting troops.
Authorship
is often anonymous by staff writers
but there are a few attributions
to some notable contributors, including
Eric Linklater, Anthony Cotterell and
Orde Wingate.
In the alternate
weeks the Army Bureau of Current
Affairs issued the fortnightly 'CURRENT
AFFAIRS', each issue of which dealt
with one subject of topical importance.
Copies in stock of this title are
listed first followed by copies
of 'WAR'.
