Description:
From Simpson’s donkey and the Emu War to Vietnam and Ben Roberts-Smith, Australian military history is full of events that didn’t happen the way most people think they did. In his inimitable style, award-winning author Mark Dapin sets the record straight.
Australia’s war tales could be said to be the closest thing we have to sacred stories: ANZAC, Simpson and his donkey, Changi, the wronged diggers in Vietnam, Ben Roberts-Smith. Millions of dollars are spent enshrining these stories in the War Memorial in Canberra and the Australian National Memorial in France, amongst others.
But did what we’re celebrating actually happen?
In this book, award-winning author and historian Mark Dapin shows that often the reality was completely different from the myth – and that by celebrating the wrong people, we often forget about the real heroes. With deep research and a sharp wit, Lest reclaims the truth about our military history.

Great coat
Size: Large, Color: Black
Sizing runs true, the quality appears to be good. I ordered the black and the color is what I expected, it’s the perfect length. The weight and thickness is perfect for temperatures in the low 30’s and up. The coat is perfect for Business wear and casual wear

Nice Coat, But Could Better
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I like this coat overall. It fits really well, nicely tapered, and a good weight, but the fabric has a sheen to it, very noticeable in brighter light, which I'm not crazy about. It doesn't have any inner breast pockets, and I don't feel secure putting my phone in the side pockets. I did get lots of positive comments from friends.

Great style chose for any occasion
Size: Medium, Color: Black
Genuinely the perfect fit and great for the style I prefer. Great material and thick to keep you warm but not to hot. Black is deep and adds that depth that I am looking for
