Scarce personal account of service with "D" Coy. 1/4th Wiltshire Regt. (called 'Westshires' in the book) during battles of Gaza &c. 1917-18. "This little book gives a good idea of the Palestine campaign as it appeared to a junior infantry officer. He gives descriptions of many sites historical because of their sacred associations or because of their links with former campaigns in a country which was the cockpit of the ancient world, as Flanders has been of the modern." - Falls. Orig. maroon cloth, titled in black, sp. little rubbed/worn, generally VG. See illustration on our website.
