Available in mid September, however we are taking orders for this now. Available in our online store for AUD $75.

Another great book by Neville Browning – this one will walk out the door in quick time!

LEANE’S BATTALION is the History of the 48th Battalion A.I.F. in World War 1, from its formation in Egypt in 1916 to its war service on the Western Front. LEANE’S BATTALION is a hard covered, cloth-bound, 480-page, B5 volume with a dust-wrapper, containing 285 photographs and maps, as well as hundreds of eye-witness reports from contemporary diaries, letters, reports and journals of 48th Battalion men. Most of the photographs, journals and diaries are from private sources across Australia and therefore never published. The volume includes daily descriptions of life and death on the Western Front amidst battles such as Pozieres, Bullecourt, Messines, Passchendaele, Dernancourt, Monument Wood, Amiens and the Hindenburg Line. Appendices include Nominal Roll, Honour Roll, Awards and Citations, Nominal Index and POW Roll.

Good Reading,

Glenn and the Regimental Books Team
