The 45th Battalion is the History of the 45th Battalion AIF in World War 1, from its formation in Egypt in 1916 to its active service on the Western Front.
The 45th Battalion is a hard covered, 400-page, B5 volume (printed in Western Australia) containing many rare photographs and maps.
Hundreds of eye-witness reports from contemporary diaries, letters, reports and journals of 45th Battalion men bring the history to life.
Many of the photographs, journals and diaries are from private sources across Australia and therefore never previously published.
The history includes daily descriptions of life and death on the Western Front amidst battles such as Pozieres, Messines, Passchendaele, Amiens and the Hindenburg Line.
Detailed appendices include Nominal Rolls, Honour Roll, Awards, Nominal Index, POW Roll and transferees from the 47th Battalion.
