During World War I, over 330,000 Australians served their country on battlefields far from their homeland, more than 60,000 of them died.
This is the story of the Marlow brothers, five young volunteers – three of whom were destined to never return home – a heart-breaking tale of courage, mateship and sacrifice. Read the letters the brothers wrote from the trenches, trace their footsteps and commemorate all those who have served to defend our freedom and way of life.
Compiled by the granddaughter of a surviving brother from a primary source collection of over 500 letters, postcards and photos, this is the ideal tool for developing understanding of Australia’s major days of commemoration – Anzac Day and Remembrance Day.
