About the book

Traces New Zealand's overseas army from Egypt in January 1940 to northern Italy in April 1945, by way of Thermopylae, El Alamein, Cassino and the South Pacific islands. Like their fathers in the Great War, the 'Kiwis' responded to Britain's peril in extraordinary numbers - 12 percent of the Dominion's entire population served overseas. Led by a much-wounded and much-decorated general, they endured, and learned from, costly defeats in Greece and North Africa, to become one of the most reliable and mobile divisions in the Allied armies.--Cover.
