| Publisher Description: Teaching how to get the most out of your experience when visiting an Australian battlefield, Peter Stanley--a veteran of battlefield research in Borneo, Egypt, Turkey, and France--advises how to prepare for and conduct battlefield research. He gives wide-ranging and practical hints and tips, including what to take, whether to go alone or in a group, how to stay safe, who to contact before you go, and how to avoid getting sick while you're there. Drawing on his own extensive experience, and that of many of his friends and colleagues, Peter sends an inspiring message to get out of the armchair and walk the ground where Australia's military history was made. |
