ANZAC Heroes - Thryft

Gallant ANZAC tales of valor and sacrifice.

ANZAC Heroes could be an enlightening read for you if you're drawn to powerful true stories of courage that have shaped national identities. This book not only highlights renowned figures like Charles Upham but also sheds light on the lesser-known yet equally audacious individuals. Their astounding resilience in unimaginable conditions during WWI and WWII will offer you moving narratives that honor their legacies.
