There were Smiths in every unit of the Australian Imperial Force, in virtually every rank, every job, including doctor, chaplain, pilot and nurse.

Smiths were awarded every kind of decoration and suffered every kind of wound or fate.

The Smith's stories stand for the greater drama of Australia's Great War.

This book tells them by looking at key experiences of the war, beginning with their enlistment and moving through and beyond the war, including experiences of some of the real little Smiths 'uv Collin'wood'.
