The famous camel borne infantry of the Middle East campaigns
Oliver Hogue's account of the Imperial Camel Corps in action during
the desert and Palestine campaigns of the First World War is one of
the first books written on the subject shortly after the events
themselves took place. Hogue was a serving Australian soldier with
the unit and so had the advantage of witnessing the events
portrayed here at first hand. His is an easy reading, personable
and journalistic style-very much of its day-which weaves a romance
into this story of war against the declining Ottoman Turkish Empire
and it's German allies. There are very few books concerning the
Camel Corps and this is a true rarity and its re-publication after
so many years will be warmly greeted by aficionados of the subject.
