Description and Table of Contents

Description

After 1918, Australians embarked on a massive programme of construction of war memorials and centred around them civil ceremonies whose imagery, ritual and rhetoric constituted a religion - a cult of Anzac. This book traces the elements that gave rise to the cult, and looks at the rejection of the people who have been excluded from it.
