For Queen and Commonwealth: Australians at War by Kit Denton, published in 1987 by Time-Life Books, is a richly illustrated historical volume that explores Australia's military engagements prior to Federation. This book delves into colonial conflicts such as the New Zealand Māori Wars, the Sudan campaign, the Boxer Rebellion, and especially the Boer War, which marked Australia's most significant pre-WWI military involvement. Denton presents these episodes with accessible prose and vivid imagery, making it a valuable introductory resource for readers interested in Australia's early military history. While the book has been critiqued for its dated and somewhat simplistic portrayal of colonial warfare, it remains a collectible piece within the Australians at War series, offering insight into a lesser-known era of Australian service under the British Empire.
