Described as “a sometimes humorous, often tragic, but also always compelling account” (The Western Australian), this new edition of a bestseller reveals the story of the men of the West Australian 11th Infantry Battalion, AIF, during the World War I Gallipoli Campaign of 1915.
This book follows the battalion as they leave their homes and lives in Australia, embark for overseas, experience the excitement and boredom of Egypt, and undergo their baptism of fire in the first wave of the Australian and New Zealand landings at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915. It includes new personal accounts.
The Canberra Times said that Game To The Last is “well researched and written, finely detailed and impressively presented."
