    Gallipoli medals

    ALEXANDER, Goldie Gallipoli Medals ADCC Pub, 2013 28pp $10.95 ISBN 9780980448054

    If previous generations have fought, can two boys of the current generation be friends – in Australia?  Beginning with a lost and found medal, then three more medals plus an extra, the story traces not only their history but the ups and downs of friendship between two mates at school and home.  The history of Gallipoli and the ANZACS and how war had after effects on family are explored as well as the fact the past can influence the present, hopefully for the best.  A story with much relevance in today’s multicultural Australia.  RT
