'This book reflects four years of research involving more than 200 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians and their commitment to Australia in a time of war. The result is a series of essays that outlines indigenous involvement in all our wars, how indigenous servicemen and women were so often appallingly treated on their return and how it helped shape indigenous activism...At the heart of this important book is a sombre reminder of the broader themes of our national history.' -- Nick Richardson, Herald Sun
