Huh, interesting. I believe I own several ASEs, and they're all pocket field guides (to the US, not Europe, of course.) That may reflect mostly what people thought was worth hanging on to for seventy years more than what was produced, though. I also just bought a gardening book that was bookplated as having been sent to US soldiers overseas during WWI; does the book talk about WWI bookdrives at all?
