Peter Stanley, Jeffrey Grey, Carolyn Holbrook, Ken Inglis, Tom Frame and others
explore the rise of Australia's unofficial national day. Does Anzac Day honor
those who died pursuing noble causes in war? Or is it part of a campaign to
redeem the savagery associated with armed conflict? Do the rituals of April 25th
console loved ones? Or reinforce security objectives and strategic priorities?
Contributors explore the early debate between grieving families and veterans
about whether Anzac Day should be commemorated or celebrated, the effect of the
Vietnam War, popular culture's reflection on the day and our political leaders'
increasing profile in public commemorations.
