Second edition: 404 pages, colour frontispiece of Delville Wood, 18 full page black and white portraits, 22 maps, navy blue cloth with gilt armorial crest on the upper cover, titled gilt on the spine which is faded, a very good copy.

From the preface: In the autumn of 1916 I was asked by the Union Government to undertake the official History of the South African Forces in Europe. At the time I was serving in France and had therefore an opportunity to see something of the Infantry Brigade... My aim has been to tell as simply as possible the story of a great military achievement.
