Works about this Work

Missing Voices : Aboriginal Experiences in the Great War John Maynard , 2017 single work criticism
— Appears in: History Australia , June vol. 14 no. 2 2017; (p. 237-249) 'Aboriginal involvement in World War I is at once complex and full of contradictions. During the Great War, many Aboriginal people and communities were keen to enlist and supportive of the war effort while others spoke out against conscription and the war. It is important to trace Aboriginal voices both during and after the war to comprehend what Aboriginal people had to say about the conflict. This article seeks to provide answers to some of these tantalising issues, and snapshots of the Aboriginal WWI experience. These complex stories will fill gaps in the mythic Australian First World War narrative.' (Publication abstract)
Indigenous Diggers and the New Age of Anzackery Paul Daley , 2015 single work criticism
— Appears in: Meanjin , Autumn vol. 74 no. 1 2015; (p. 1-16) In 1967 the historian Geoffrey Searl conjured a superb description of the overblown nationalistic hyperbole that had attached, limpet-like, to Anzac during his postwar youth: Anzackery. What a word for the bombastic myth making that has culturally amplified and enshrined Australia's part in the botched invasion and attempted occupation of a small finger of the Ottoman Empire on 25 April 1915.
