Reviews for Camp and Combat on the Sinai and Palestine Front: The Experience of the British Empire Soldier, 1916-18
"This important book restores the war in the Middle East to our attention and emphasises that the struggle against the Ottomans posed as many challenges and hardships for the men who fought it as did the better-known experiences at Gallipoli and on the Western Front." - Professor Jeffrey Grey, UNSW, Australia
