Grecian Adventure - Anzac Trail Stories & Photographs - Greece 1941

The story of the Australians who served in the Greek campaign has created an enduring bond between Australians and Greeks. Historian Jim Claven has revealed a new aspect of this story through this publication of nearly one hundred never before published photographs of the campaign, most from the archive of the State Library of Victoria. He has placed these photographs in context through a series of chapters, telling some of the key Australian stories from the campaign, recounting not only the war but also the warm interaction of these young Australians with their local hosts, along with many of his own photographs from his field research in Greece. It is published by Melbourne's Pammessinian Brotherhood Papaflessas as a fitting addition to the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the Greek campaign of 1941.
