- Summary
- This story reveals the character of New Zealanders at war: the men who emerged quietly reflective from the horrors of battle in the First World War and became famous as 'The Silent Division,' the best in the British army; the men whom enemy soldiers feard and hated in the Second World War; and the young peacekeepers who've served in war zones around the globe.
