George Odgers chronicles the full arc of Australia's military history — from the colonial campaigns of the 1860s through to June 1994 — tracing the sacrifice, courage, and tenacity of the men and women who served across eleven distinct conflicts, on land, at sea, and in the air.\n\nEndorsed by the Australian Defence Force, this authoritative two-volume work carries the weight of official recognition while retaining the narrative drive of a compelling history. Odgers, one of Australia's most distinguished military historians, presents each campaign with meticulous detail and an unwavering respect for those who served, weaving together the stories of ordinary Australians thrust into extraordinary circumstances. From the sun-scorched battlefields of Gallipoli to the jungles of the Pacific and beyond, Diggers illuminates the enduring spirit of the Australian service person — leaving readers to wonder what further sacrifices shaped this nation's soul.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572266504411,"sku":"2026100010853-SECONDHAND","price":55.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5dd39eef-1864-4216-b250-f9d3683e03af.png?v=1791166135","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010853-secondhand-diggers-the-australian-army-navy-and-air-force-in-eleven-wars","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
