Dedication: This little book is inscribed to my two soldier sons, and to the soldier sons of thousands of other Australians who, in the great world war, have been deaf to all sophistries, and have heard only the clarion call of duty . And who will return to us, please God,
"Wi' the faith o' men wha ha' proven men, / Wi' more than the willin' breath, / An' the eyes o' men wha ha' read wi' men, / In the open books o' death!"

Epigraph: The moving figure writes; and having writ / Moves on : nor all your Piety nor Wit / Shall lure it back to cancel half a line / Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it. - LXXI Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
