| Summary | "Australia in Arms" by Phillip F. E. Schuler is a historical narrative written during the early 20th century. The book details the involvement of the Australian Imperial Force during World War I, specifically focusing on their achievements at Gallipoli, particularly at Anzac Cove. The narrative captures the experiences of Australian soldiers, their courage, and the profound impact of war on a young nation. At the start of the book, the author introduces the circumstances leading to Australia's entry into the Great War, highlighting the swift response of young Australians to the call of duty. The opening sections describe the chaotic atmosphere in Australia as war was declared, with excitement and national pride surging through the civilians as they witnessed their sons and brothers preparing for battle. Schuler recounts his personal experiences as a war correspondent accompanying the troops, reflecting on the camaraderie among soldiers and the early days of training and mobilization in Egypt. This setting serves as the foundation for the broader exploration of the Australian forces' journey into battle and the harrowing experiences that followed.
