AUSTRALIAN LIGHT HORSE, THE: The Magnificent Australian Force and Its Decisive Victories in Arabia in World War I

AUSTRALIAN MILITARY

Battle-hardened by Gallipoli and the repulse of the Turkish invasion of Egypt, the Australians were ready. Under their brilliant commander, Sir Harry Chauvel they won great victories in the Sinai, Palestine and Syria culminating in the last great cavalry charge in our military history, and the taking of Beersheba in 1917. Every Australian has heard of the Light Horse – but practically none have read their story. 010315 / 0218 / 0518/1020/0521/170624
