AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'We all have deep respect for the legacy and bravery of Australia's diggers, but how many of their stories do we truly know? Michelle Primmer, grandniece of Herbert Frederick Golding Lefevre, knows her uncle's story better than most after spending years transcribing his WW1 diary.Uncle Bert's Diary shares a story that must be told, beginning with the day he began service in April 1917 and weaving an incredible story through many countries - Egypt, Italy, France and eventually on to Belgium. We see Bert's life as a soldier, warts and all, the training, the trenches and the mates who stood by each other through thick and thin.' (Source : Trove)
