"...until you are safe" / Tony Squire.

In 1914, as Europe teetered on the edge of war, life in the Queensland town of Kilcoy carried on; the country folk oblivious to the catastrophe about to engulf their world, changing their lives forever. Amidst this tranquil backdrop, three young men from the Taylor family, along with many from the town and the surrounding area, eagerly answer the call, rushing to enlist in the newly formed Australian Imperial Force, joining the ranks of the 9th Battalion and 2nd Light Horse Regiment. This work of historical fiction takes the reader on a journey, unveiling the hidden chapters of their remarkable story, delving in to their experiences, from training, to the ancient lands of Egypt and Lemnos, and on to the unforgiving shores of Gallipoli.
