Sacred Places: War Memorials in the Australian Landscape Book

This magnificently produced and beautifully written book is the product of a lifetime's thought and research by master social historian Ken Inglis. After Gallipoli, on a scale unknown anywhere else in the world, Australia embarked on a massive program of war memorial construction. The memorials became the holy sites of a new civil and nationalist religion-the cult of Anzac. In this comprehensive and fascinating analysis, Inglis traces the development of the cult and its social origins and implications, as well as looking at those who rejected it. He creates new perspectives on a key stage of Australia's growing national identity.Read More
