'ANZACs on the Western Front' does far more than show where the lines that generals drew on their maps actually ran on the on the ground and retrace the footsteps of the men advancing towards them. It is a graphic and wide-ranging record of the Australian and New Zealand achievements, and of the huge sacrifices both nations made.

The book is a comprehensive guide to the ANZAC battlefields on the Western Front. Numerous drives and walks, all meticulously researched and illustrated by colour maps and modern and period photographs from the Australian War Memorial archive, enable the action on those battlefields to be followed. Personal accounts vividly bring that action to life and succinct narratives give the necessary historical context. Going beyond the battlefields, the guide also includes short essays on important personalities and events, details on relevant cemeteries, museums, memorials and nearby places of interest, and general travel information. All the Australian and New Zealand VC actions are pinpointed and described.

Lavishly illustrated in vibrant colour, with fascinating and rare images from the Australian War Memorial archive as well as new panoramic location shots to provide an in situ perspective for the reader, each chapter covers important tactical milestones passed along the way and explains how the Australian Imperial Force and the New Zealand Expeditionary Force evolved to meet the war’s changing demands.
