Emmy de Reus (nyneve) | 20400 comments The link to AbeBooks returns a "404 Page Not Found";
the ibb.co-link seems to hold the first inner page rather than the cover image...

If you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy of the cover and the page with the publication information, the book's colofon page.
You can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new), section More photos.. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).

We don't just need a cover image, but we need to check/verify the book's details, e.g. isbn and/or asin, etc. etc.

Athena | 3 comments My apologies, this here should be the right link to the book page:
https://www.abebooks.com/Marching-Mil...

I do own a copy of the book, and I have uploaded a photo of the cover, as well as the book's colofon page, to my profile.
Here are links to the same:

The book is really old and I believe it doesn't have an ISBN number.

The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) was introduced in 1970, so a book published in 1944 will not have one.
