Summary: "Australasia Triumphant!: With the Australians and New Zealanders in the Great War" by A. St. John Adcock is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work chronicles the participation of Australian and New Zealand troops in World War I, detailing their contributions on land and sea. It examines significant events, narratives of bravery, and the soldier's experiences during the war, aiming to highlight the spirit and loyalty of the Australasian forces to the British Empire. The opening of "Australasia Triumphant!" provides insights into the initial preparations for war following the declaration by Great Britain in August 1914. It captures the urgent mobilization of troops and resources in both Australia and New Zealand, the enthusiastic response of the populace, and the profound sense of duty felt by the soldiers. The author emphasizes the contrast between the initial skepticism surrounding the loyalty of the colonies and the rapid rallying of volunteers ready to support their mother country against perceived threats, marking the beginning of a shared commitment to fight for freedom and justice in the larger conflict of World War I.
