Author: Ron Banks

What was it that propelled young men to war in the 1940's? Ron Banks explores the issues that confounded his own generation about the past of his parents and grandparents within the wider context of wartime Australia. His story extends to his own generation's involvement in the Vietnam war and such controversial issues as the Anzac legend and opposition to the war. He has woven press reports and government announcements into the narrative.
