Guy Thornton recounts his experiences serving as a military 
chaplain with the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) 
while stationed in Egypt during World War I. His writing is 
opinionated, emotionally vulnerable, and written in very colorful, 
vivid prose. He recounts both his successes and failures as a pastor. 
Of particular concern to Thornton, are his soldiers’ interactions with 
the Wasa'a- the red-light district of Cairo which was popular with the 
soldiers who often patronized prostitutes. Thornton also expresses 
his experiences exploring Cairo, his work as a chaplain, and the 
various social services catering to soldiers. - Summary by Adam
