What Members Thought

The autobiography of an Australian man who grew up in Western Australia.
This is a really beautiful book- gut wrenching at times, especially parts of his childhood and Gallipoli.
You read so quickly through it, because of the simplicity of the language, but this language is what makes the book so special.
