These victories in battle were only made possible by their support from home. Still recovering from the First World War and the Great Depression the Australian population rallied to make these achievements possible.
This is the story of Australia and Australians at war at home and abroad in the six years, 1939 to 1945.
'A terrific book... It is a story that subsequent generations should know, and this book is an excellent place for that journey of discovery and understanding to begin.' - Canberra Times
'Concisely and with verve, Michael McKernan covers a huge amount of ground.' - The Sydney Morning Herald
