Description

Soldiers' Tales 2 is a unique collection of personal accounts told by soldiers or relatives who have lived with their stories. Spanning the period from World War I through to the conflicts of the modern era, these stories are a mixture of the humorous and the intensely emotional. This collection is unmistakably Australian and is a combination of larrikin yarns and other more serious stories that tell of tragedy and often unspoken pain.

Reviews

For the war buff and Australian historian, this is an evocative collection of true stories from soldiers in Australia. Full of authenticity and typical Aussie larrikinism.
