This remarkable but true collection has been gleaned from a large variety of World War I sources. It records the role animals played in environments which were completely alien to them. For all animals that served us so well, only a handful left their mark in history.
This book not only commemorates the role our Australian and New Zealand horses played in a war which saw eight million animals perish in the bloodiest of battles, but preserves this collection of stories to be re-told almost one hundred years later. Here the author presents the deeds of the unknown, along side the well-known Waler horses, donkeys, mules and dogs. They were all heroes.
This is a book you wont be able to put down and in the reading you will gain a great compassion for these brave animals.
