This book was first published as Goodbye Cobber, God Bless You, by Pan MacMillan Australia in 2004. The book is the story - well told - of one of the most stupid and futile orders to advance in the whole of the war. The Light Horse's action at The Nek has gone down in Australian folklore, but for all the wrong reasons.
