Dedication: This little book is inscribed to my two soldier sons, and to the soldier sons of thousands of other Australians who, in the great world war, have been deaf to all sophistries, and have heard only the clarion call of duty . And who will return to us, please God,
"Wi' the faith o' men wha ha' proven men, / Wi' more than the willin' breath, / An' the eyes o' men wha ha' read wi' men, / In the open books o' death!"
