Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Gift inscription to an RSA from the Appleton family. Feels unread with very light shelf wear. Appleton recounts his journey from enlistment to front‑line service, following the Division through the major campaigns of the Mediterranean theatre. He writes as an ordinary New Zealand sapper rather t…han a historian, giving the book the feel of a soldier's notebook expanded into a full narrative. His memories centre on the daily realities of war: long marches, engineering work under fire, the strain of desert heat, the camaraderie of Kiwi troops, and the moments of fear and humour that punctuated life at the front. The tone is reflective and personal, shaped by the perspective of a man looking back across decades.
