The gates of memory
The gates of memory
About this book
"Much has been written on the Anzac legend and the 60,000 Australians who lost their lives in the Great War, but little has been said about the hundreds of thousands who were left to grieve for their loved ones, denied bodies over which to mourn. The Gates of Memory is a cultural history that explores the meanings, for ordinary Australians, of loss and memory during the Great War, and of the succeeding generations who lived with the memories of these losses."--BOOK JACKET.
