Jonathan KingAward-winning author Jonathan King, who has written 25 books on Australian history including three on Gallipoli, interviewed the last 50 surviving WWI soldiers from the Western Front, toured the battlefields with some in 1998 and collected hundreds o their diaries, letters and photographs for this book. An old friend of the diggers with many ancestors serving on the Western Front, he has traversed those battlefields for the last 25 years, led tours through France and Flanders, written articles for newspapers and magazines, appeared on radio and television shows and presented documentary films celebrating Australian achievements in this terrible theatre. Jonathan campaigned for years until the government agreed – as a 90th anniversary gesture – to hold Anzac Day Dawn Services at Villers-Bretonneux every year. Read More Read Less
