AUSTRALIA IN ARMS
SOLDIER-SONGS FROM ANZAC
By Signaller TOM SKEYHILL.
With an Introduction by Major-General J. W. McCAY, C. B.
Paper cover, 1s. net.
Private Skeyhill trained in Egypt from January 1915 to April 1915. He landed with his battalion on Anzac Beach on 25th April, taking part in the fighting of that first fierce week. The next week he was with his battalion at Cape Helles, and shared in the well-known charge by the 2nd Brigade on the 8th May, when a high-explosive shell burst beside him and sent him to hospital, a blind and helpless man. There are hopes that eventually he may recover his sight, but at best the time must be long. His poems breathe love of country and of courage, the spirit of battle, soldiers' comradeship, and sympathy for the fallen.
