"Glorious Deeds of Australasians in the Great War" by E. C. Buley is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the bravery and contributions of Australian and New Zealand soldiers during World War I, particularly focusing on their experiences at Gallipoli. It aims to shed light on individual and collective acts of heroism that have often been overlooked in official accounts, emphasizing the spirit of camaraderie and sacrifice among the soldiers. The opening of this historical work presents an outline of the mobilization and preparation of Australasia's troops for the war. Starting with the departure from Australia aboard the "long black ships," the narrative underscores the diverse backgrounds of the volunteers who formed this democratic army, unified by a common cause. The section also highlights the eagerness and fervor of these men, who, despite the challenges of enlistment and rigorous training, remained dedicated to their mission. Further, Buley reflects on the initial phases of their journey and the atmosphere among the troops as they approached the battlefront, setting the stage for their later engagements in Gallipoli.
