This volume of a multi-volume series of WWI, covers the establishment of the Australian Imperial Force and up to the end of the 1st Phase of the Gallipoli campaign.
Like other histories, this does cover the major strategy and key events, but unlike most histories this book also covers in detail what takes place behind the scenes of the whole mammoth enterprise and for the military actions you often go to platoon level and in many cases descriptions of the efforts of individual soldiers. A worthy official history and a fantastic resource from a person who was at all the actions on the day of near enough to them, basically a first and/or second hand study of the events.
Anyone with a deep interest in WWI in general and in Australia's efforts in particular can not go past this book and its sister volumes!… (altro)
