1 [Review Essay] Charles Bean. Man, Myth, Legacy Richard Trembath , 2017 single work essay
— Appears in: Journal of Australian Studies , vol. 41 no. 4 2017; (p. 542-543)

'Charles Edwin Woodrow Bean, generally known as CEW Bean, trained as a lawyer and practised as a journalist prior to the First World War. Appointed Official Correspondent in 1914, he subsequently became editor of the Official History of Australia in the War of 1914–1918, writing the key volumes about Anzac and the Western Front himself. Bean was the founding father of the Australian War Memorial, and if that was not enough, also played a role in establishing the National Archives. Largely unread now—he may never have been read much—Bean is widely regarded as the creator, or the most significant founder, of the Anzac legend.' (Introduction)

'Few Australian realise the extent of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participation in the military. Many enlisted before they had the right to vote, to drink alcohol or even to receive equal wages.

'Defending Country is the first book to document the unique experiences of Indigenous Australian men and women since the Second World War. Using compelling personal narratives and rigorous archival research, it explores how military service impacted the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander recruits. It also reveals how their involvement in Australia's defence contributed to the advancement of Indigenous rights.

'Historians Noah Riseman and Richard Trembath examine what motivated Indigenous people to sign up, their experiences of racism in the armed forces, the challenges in returning to civilian life and the role of the Australian Defence Force in promoting Reconciliation.

'Defending Country is an important addition to Australia's military history studies and offers a fascinating insight into little-known wartime experiences.' (Publication summary)

1 “Wherever There Was A Battle” : Australian War Richard Trembath , 2010 single work criticism
— Appears in: Australian Studies , vol. 2 no. 2010;
'For a small nation Australia has produced a significant number of distinguished war correspondents. Some of these such as Chester Wilmot and Alan Moorehead are amongst the best known reporters of the Second World War. In this paper I want to look more generally at those Australian journalists who worked for Fleet Street before and during the Second World War. In so doing I hope to shed fresh light on the relationship between the Australian and British newspaper worlds and how Fleet Street operated as the centre of the Empire's media in the middle of the 20th Century.'
