Members of the 'Old Melburnians Society' who served in World War I is the focus of this book. The Society was founded in 1879, with the aims and objectives of supporting the Melbourne Grammar School which opened in 1858, only ten years after the establishment of the city of Melbourne.

This book features details of all 1353 'Old Melburnians' who fought in Gallipoli, Egypt, Palestine, Mesopotamia, Salonkia, France, Belgium, Africa, and Rabaul.

Divided into various sections: the Index consists of a nominal roll with full names of all Old Melburnians who were on war service. The 'Our Honoured Dead' section lists all 207 men who lost their lives in War Service, together with their full name, cause of death, and date of death. A large portion of the book contains 'The War Service Particulars' section which lists all men alphabetically by surname, together with details of their war service history.

You will also find obituary notices, editorials, a glossary, and letters from those overseas, and approximately 200 portrait photographs.

This is a useful book for those with Victorian military, or a World War I interest.
