“The sole purpose of this narrative is to record the work of the Australian
Light Horse in the British campaigns in Sinai, Palestine, and Syria during the
years 1916, 1917 and 1918... The story, therefore, in its bolder features
covers the whole British force. But, as will be apparent, it covers in detail
only the fighting and the campaign life of the Australians...” - H.S.G., Melbourne, 1st November, 1922
