In July 1915 Herbert Scanlon lied about his age and name when he enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force and arrived in France in 1916. For many young Australians, this was the biggest adventure in their lives to date. He saw great battles, found camaraderie, the inevitable field hospitals, and the reconstruction of French towns while billeting with French families. He returned to Australia in 1917, and began writing these little episodes of the great dramas of War - the battles, the villages, Paris, the Battalion, great loves and precious affections - all the time remembering your own country, while defending another. Here are the lost stories of the old Alliance - France and Australia.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Herbert Scanlon spent most of 1916 on the battlefields of France, being billeted by French families and helping reconstruct French villagers with his AIF detachment. In this way he was a typical Australian in action, but he was also very young, only 17, and every event made an impression. After the war he wrote 17 little booklets about the Digger's war experience, and this book, the first ever compilation of his work, concentrates on the 40 French tales; the little wins, the little tragedies, the great love displayed by the French for the Australian contingents that year. 120 pages, full colour, in our Sydney-Paris Link series. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781923205680
