This book is the first study of Australia’s military police. It traces its history from its roots as the Provost Marshal in the colony of New South Wales, where it was ‘similarly feared by soldier, settler, and convict alike,’ through the formation of the Anzac Provost Corps in 1916 and up to the end of World War II.
