Sacred Places War Memorials in the Australian Landscape By K.S. Inglis
The war
memorials and holy sites of the new civil and nationalist religion of the
Australian and New Zealand Air Corps (Anzac) are evaluated in this beautifully
produced book. After the terrors of the First World War, Australians embarked
on a remarkable program of war memorial construction creating large and small
mementos that adorn the Australian landscape to this day-pieces that express
pride and grief in the perceptions of God, empire, and nation. The author
traces the development of the cult of Anzac and its monuments, covering their
social origins and modern implications of national spirit and patriotism. This
edition includes a new forward to mark the 90th anniversary of the Anzac's
landing at Gallipoli. This large softcover book is the fully updated third edition and was published by the Melbourne University Press in 2008 and is new. There is a single texta line visible to the bottom of the pages when the book is closed.
