ANZAC Nations - The Legacy of Gallipoli in New Zealand and Australia 1965-2015

Otago University Press, Dunedin, 2022. Crease to spine, otherwise good secondhand condition.

In Anzac Nations: The legacy of Gallipoli in New Zealand and Australia, 1965?2015, author Rowan Light examines the myth-making around Anzac and how commemoration has evolved ? from 1965, when many assumed that the tradition of remembering the Anzacs would not survive beyond the death of the last Gallipoli veteran, to the Anzac Centenary in 2015 when the Australian federal government outspent all other countries, and New Zealand?s centenary programme was the largest commemoration in the country?s history. Anzac Nations explores how societies make meaning and express value and beliefs through practices such as remembrance and commemoration.
