Items related to Anzac Memories: Living with the Legend
In this highly original book, Alistair Thomson poses salient questions about the Anzac legend and its effects on those who lived under its shadow. How was the legend created and what form has it taken since Charles Bean's seminal work? What was its changing significance for Australian politics and society? Most crucially, how has it served the men whose lives it represents - the survivors of the Great War?
