'This book is primarily a collection of fiction and verse inspired by the Gallipoli campaign. Some of the writing reflects the experiences of the troops themselves..... Also included are some narrative first-and second-hand accounts of the experiences of the Anzacs at Gallipoli.'
(Introduction, p.1)
This poetic tribute to the Anzacs by popular early 20th century British author Edgar Wallace was included in C.E.W. Bean's Anzac Book and in numerous subsequent anthologies and compilations.
