This volume examines the military obligation of government during the first century of the Commonwealth of Australia. During this time, the defense has endured two world wars as well as a series of other military engagements. Although the reputation of military has become a significant factor in the lives and views of Australians, the topic rarely receives public interest. This book explains the complexities of this essential strand of the Commonwealth. It is not a history of the Army’s battles but a history of the Australian Army with its shortcomings and failures paid due attention, its triumphs and successes duly noted. pp. 336 illusts #0819 (Edgewear to cloth underneath dustjacket.)
