The unit history of the 52nd Battalion A.I.F. in the First World War, written by Neville Browning and published in 2005. The 52nd Battalion was raised in South Australia and Western Australia in 1916 and served on the Western Front as part of the 13th Brigade, 4th Division AIF — seeing action at Polygon Wood, Passchendaele, Villers-Bretonneux and the Hundred Days Offensive of 1918.
Browning is one of Australia's most thorough researchers of AIF battalion histories, and this volume follows the same detailed approach as his other unit histories — drawing on personal diaries, letters, nominal rolls and official records to document the men of the battalion as individuals as well as as a fighting unit.
