Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Every year tens of thousands of Australians make their pilgrimages to Gallipoli, France and other killing fields of the Great War. It is a journey steeped in history. Some go in search of family memory, seeking the grave of a soldier lost a lifetime ago. For others, Anzac pilgrimage has become a ri…te of passage, a statement of what it means to be Australian. This book, first published in 2006, explores the memory of the Great War through the historical experience of pilgrimage. It examines the significance these 'sacred sites' have acquired in the hearts and minds of successive generations and charts the complex responses of young and old, soldier and civilian, the pilgrims of the 1920s and today's backpacker travellers. This book gives voice to history, retrieving a bitter-sweet testimony through interviews, surveys and a rich archival record. Innovative, courageous and often deeply moving, it explains why the Anzac legend still captivates Australians. Author's inscription on title page. Cover sunned. 273 pages.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. A very clean copy. Bruce Scates is a study of how Australians and New Zealanders have travelled back to the Gallipoli battlefields from the 1920s through to the early twenty‑first century. Scates follows the experiences of families searching for the graves of lost soldiers, veterans returning to t…he places where they fought, and younger travellers who visit Gallipoli as part of a modern rite of passage. He blends archival research with interviews and personal accounts to show how these journeys shape national memory and identity. The book explores how the meaning of Gallipoli has changed over time, shifting from private grief to public commemoration and eventually to a major cultural pilgrimage.
