World War 1 Chronicles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

With the 100th Anniversary of WW1 nearing, I suspect these will be well sought after.
They are detailed chronicles by Arthur Conan Doyle, with each volume written immediately after each year of fighting and including detailed accounts and large numbers of maps, of every battle by Britain and Allies in France and Flanders.
There are a number of references to Australian battles and action.
The books include a small number of hand written annotations and include a loosely inserted thank you note from 1926 by someone who borrowed one of the books.
The books are almost 100 years old. They appear to have all pages intact, but there is some yellowing of pages and one book's cover is starting to split (can be repaired with glue but due to the sigificance of these books I didn't want to risk an amateur fix).
All volumes are here (there are two books for 1918 - being for the first and second half of the fighting year) however the books are not from the same set as they have coloured with age differently. I bought several from a part set then sourced others from the UK to get all volumes.
A fascinating read and excellent historical reference material.
