Written by one of Australia's official war correspondents, F. M. Cutlack, the book centres on the Australian Corps' pivotal role in 1918 — the defence against the German Spring Offensive around Villers-Bretonneux, the Battle of Hamel (4 July) under Monash's command, the launch of the Allied Hundred Days Offensive at Amiens (8 August), the capture of Mont St Quentin and Péronne, and the eventual breaching of the Hindenburg Line — presented as first-hand journalism rather than an official, exhaustively-researched history.
