Historical information

All of my family members who went to WW1 did so with the belief that they were fighting to make the world a better and safer place for those they loved. Jack, Harold, Charlie, Harry and Rolie each suffered illness and injury, but returned to Australia.
Archie, Alwyn and Clarrie were all killed in action between 18 August 1915 and 14 November 1916. Thomas Page wrote in his letter to Jack regarding his sons, and I include Archie in his comment, ‘we deplore their loss … they did their duty nobly.’
With letters and postcards, Remembering the Anzacs in my Family is an intimate and inspirational glimpse into the lives of a family as they lived through the hopes and horrors of war.
