What really happened to the ex-servicemen in Australia when they returned to civil life?
The truth of their stories in peacetime is as shocking as the war they faced. In fact, the line separating the living from the dead was, at times, not clear at all.
Many soldiers returned to celebrations, such as the great march in Melbourne on St Patrick’s Day 1920, but celebrations were followed by a period of long silence. ‘Disappointment crowded in on disappointment’ especially concerning First Nations Diggers.
Mistakes were made as well as achievements attained.

While much has been written about Australians in the Great War battles which resonates in the national consciousness, less has been published about Anzacs in civilian life. The truth of their stories in peacetime is neglected. There are silences. Memories have been lost that cry out.
Author John Ramsland, draws on his extensive and detailed research to bring to life stories exposing the struggles and successes.
