I found it interesting to learn about this man. Lt. Col. William Malone was an intelligent and fearless NZ army officer who gave inspired leadership in the Gallipoli campaign. Yet, sadly, afterwards his role was misrepresented, and instead of being honoured, he was blamed for the errors of other leaders. The author puts the record straight. This book also is of interest to readers who enjoy learning about the pioneers from Britain that arrived in this country with a vision to make it a significant and just nation.
