Ashley Ekins, with Ian McNeill, presents a rigorous and unflinching account of Australia's military commitment during the war's most politically charged phase, detailing the tactical decisions, battlefield realities, and institutional pressures that shaped the Army's conduct from the Tet Offensive's aftermath through to the fall of Saigon.\n\nThis landmark work argues that Australia's role in Vietnam was far more complex and consequential than popular memory allows, unearthing the strategic tensions between Canberra, Washington, and the field commanders who bore the weight of an increasingly unpopular war. Drawing on extensive archival research and personal testimonies, the authors illustrate the human cost and institutional legacy of a conflict that fundamentally reshaped the Australian Army. Published in association with the Australian War Memorial, this is definitive military history at its most compelling — and it will leave readers questioning everything they thought they knew about Australia's Vietnam experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572617744603,"sku":"2026100011470-SECONDHAND","price":120.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5de397ee-4841-4e59-85c0-2cfb0e9d08fa.png?v=1791166943","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011470-secondhand-fighting-to-the-finish-the-australian-army-and-the-vietnam-war-1968-1975","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
