“The part played by the Australian corps under Lieutenant General Monash in France during the closing months of the war is recorded in this volume. The corps commanded by Lieutenant General Monash was the largest on the western front, and while the body of his troops were Australians it contained some imperial divisions and the 27th and 30th American divisions. These troops went into action in the defence of Amiens when it was menaced by the great drive of the ‘Kaiser’s battle,’ and fought up to the taking of Montbrehain on Oct. 5.”—Boston Transcript

Mr Walter Herries Pollock in the introduction to this book of reminiscences pays tribute to the author as clergyman and cricketer. The book itself is a collection of anecdotes and stories, part of the accumulated store from thirty years of work as a parochial clergyman.
“Mr Money’s anecdotes are good, but one has the tantalizing feeling as one reads them that the printed version is only the palest reflection of the real thing.”
