In a great condition for a book more than 100 years' old. First edition: one of the first works to explicitly study the evolution of the 'digger', and with a laudatory preface by Birdwood. Denny, an Adelaide-born solicitor involved in the South Australian government, enlisted in the Light Horse in August 1915 and was badly wounded and awarded the MC at Ypres in September 1917. In January of the following year he was seconded to the AIF Headquarters working in the repatriation department, during which period he began writing the present book, which was not published until after he resigned his commission. Not dated on the title-page, Denny's short introduction is dated AIF Headquarters, January 1919. Box No. 4. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 40
