I was looking for a book listing engineer units for WW1 & WW2 and this book is exactly what I was looking for.

The format is very utilitarian but all ,almost all,you need to know is there.
I was interested in a particular Squadron and its history ,found out most of it ,where it was formed and all the changes to date.
If you are looking for Battle History then this is not for you.
More of a Unit reference book but for me ,Ex Corps it makes for a good browse.
