The book narrates the personal experiences of the author, who served as the officer commanding the 4th Field Ambulance during the ANZAC campaign at Gallipoli in World War I. It is focused on the experiences and challenges faced by the Australian Imperial Force as they engaged in medical work amidst the brutal realities of war, providing insight into the valor and dedication of the soldiers.
