Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly front right tail corner now protected with book tape. Interior and binding are still very good.
Michael Lawriwsky's insightful book breathes life into the real man behind the legend, Albert Jacka - 'Bert' to his mates, 'our Albert' to his proud mother. His acts of selfless heroism at Gallipoli would win him a VC, and his bravery in the battlefields of France would win him the unswerving loyalty of his mates.
Hard Jacka is a rich and fascinating story about Albert Jacka and the Great War, its heroes and anti-heroes, their sacrifice, determination and larrikin humour. It's a compelling tale about the deep bonds that life in the trenches developed between men - the quintessential Aussie mateship.
