A comprehensive biography of General Sir Alexander Godley, presenting for the first time a fair and balanced look at his time as commander of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force and II ANZAC Corps. While Godley is remembered as being a poor field commander, Terry Kinloch argues that he was in fact a capable one who had little ability to influence the failed battles at Gallipoli and Passchendaele that he is often seen as responsible for.
