Details: To Win the Battle tells the story of how the 1st Australian Division forged a reputation as one of the great fighting formations of the British Empire during World War One. In 1915 it led the way ashore on Gallipoli and in 1916 it achieved the first Australian victory on the Western Front at Pozi`eres. Later it was still serving with distinction in the final battles that defeated the German army in 1918. It was central to the birth of the Anzac legend. This ground-breaking study describes and explains how the 1st Australian Division rose from obscurity and over three and a half years of hard and bloody campaigning earned a combat record second to none. Drawing extensively on primary sources as well as recent scholarship, this important book provides a fresh approach and a balanced assessment of the factors that led to the division's success.
