Armageddon: Two Men On An ANZAC Trail (2011) By Paul Daley & Michael Bowers
 
Almost a century after the Australian Light Horse cavalry and infantry fought a series of epic and bloody battles against the Turkish Army across the deserts of the Middle East, the steps of the men and boys who fought there are retraced in this extraordinary book. From the enemy trenches where they charged the Turks on horseback, to the narrow mountain passes where, exhausted, they slept in their saddles in retreat this account journeys to the hostile and lonely places where soldiers lost and buried their mates.
 
Through battlefields still littered with shrapnel, bullet casings, and even the odd human bone, this part travelogue and part history reflects upon the collision of the turbulent Middle Eastern politics with the past.
