I am not aware of the History of 23rd field Regiment by Mr Smith, but the Directorate of History and Heritage (DND) in Ottawa have a history of the unit compiled at the end of the war. All units had to write a history before thay were allowed to come home.
I have excerpts from the document (I feature the unit in a forthcoming book on the Sexton gun that they used) and can easily make it up to the full size - probably about 80 pages - and send you a copy if you wish. It is certainly not professionally written - they were in a hurry to get home... It is possible that Mr Smith's memoir is a commercial version of this.
Contact me at
dougknight@sympatico.ca if you want me to make up a copy.
Welcome to the forum.
