"In this beautiful legend Mr Davison's imagination has touched the historical facts with a bloom and steeped them in an atmosphere that reveals the truth far more clearly than the historian's uninspired chronicle. It embraces the part taken by the Anzac Mounted Division in the last phases of the attack on and capture of Beersheba. The horses' part in the campaign is nowhere so understandingly, so sympathetically, or so finely told. Altogether worthy of the author of Man-Shy".
