Smith. The author writes: </p> <p>'This work is a continuation of the career of the 44th Battalion of the Australian Imperial Forces from Western Australia. We find that the Battalion is now absorbed by the 11th Brigade; consequently the publication assumes a Brigade aspect. We have endeavoured to portray the different affairs at the training camps with a splash of history interwoven.'</p> <p>Typical of such Battalion mementos produced in training camps in the English countryside this publication reflects the lives of soldiers at rest from the harrowing conditions across the channel in European battlefields. The author describes the terrain as similar to the Western plains of New South Wales and includes some information on Stonehenge and local hamlets. Light hearted digs at the officers and mixed with poems including one such verse named 'The Kaiser's Dream'.
