Viac o knihe
The book critiques Australia's obsession with the Anzac legend, arguing it detracts from addressing the real needs of modern soldiers. James Brown, a defence analyst and former army officer, highlights the disparity between honoring past sacrifices and supporting current troops, particularly in the context of the Afghanistan war. He examines how this focus on remembrance hinders necessary criticism of the Australian Defence Force and perpetuates outdated strategies. With a call for change, Brown seeks to shift the narrative towards a more relevant understanding of contemporary military challenges.
