Sharon Evans, Big Sky Publishing
Tasmanian author David Coombes new book A Greater Sum of Sorrows is the perfect tie into upcoming commemorative events for Anzac Day. Coombes provides the first Australian account of the battle of Bullecourt and the AIF’s achievements.
For a female perspective honouring our grandmothers and mothers – You’ll be Sorry! by Ann Howard – is a superb account of women’s participation in the Services during World War II. With interviews and stories the first hand perspectives are intrinsic in understanding the impact of war on the women and their future expectations.
War Child by Annette Janic and Catherine McCullagh is a true story that spans 100 years, a tale of Nazi Germany, the lingering effects of war, the 1950s Australian migration experience and a modern-day search.
