Kit Denton states, the 'name "Breaker Morant" is evocative, linked nowadays with the images conjured up in my novel and in the film based on the episodes leading to the man's death.' With a novel in mind, Denton originally researched the story of Breaker Morant before writing his best known work, The Breaker (1973). In Closed File (1983) Denton re-examines Morant's trial and execution, he 'analyses the consequences of the court martial and describes the lives of the rest of the men involved in the affair'. The book contains reproductions of many 'photographs and documents from the period, most never before published'.
