Summary
"In 1917, the British campaign in Palestine is stalemated - the Turco-German army holds a formidable line from Gaza on the coast to Beersheeba in the forbidding drylands between Sinai and the Dead Sea. In a final attempt to save the attacking British army from disaster, everything depends on the 800 young Australian horsemen who obey the seemingly impossible order to gallop their horses across 3 miles of open desert into a hell of shell fire and machine gun crossfire. Smashing their way through Turkish defences to win the precious wells of Beersheeba, they change the history of the Middle East." -- Container
