Edited for the Board of Management of the Australian War Memorial by Norman Bartlett, this authoritative volume documents the full scope of Australia's military contribution to the Korean War, from the first deployments of the 3rd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment to the grinding trench warfare of the later campaigns, presenting a vivid and meticulously researched account of men tested to their limits on the Korean Peninsula.\n\nDrawing on first-hand accounts, official records, and the broader strategic context of the Cold War struggle on the Asian front, the work illustrates both the tactical realities faced by Australian forces and the profound human cost of a war fought far from home. Bartlett's editorial hand brings together a mosaic of voices and perspectives, ensuring that the individual stories of diggers and officers alike are preserved alongside the grand sweep of military history. Published under the imprimatur of the Australian War Memorial, this volume remains an indispensable reference for anyone seeking to understand Australia's role in one of the twentieth century's most consequential — and least commemorated — conflicts. Who were these men, and what drove them to fight so far from home?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572493652187,"sku":"2026100011506-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1f3706ef-139c-4d2f-8ca3-55814378b177.png?v=1791166633","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011506-secondhand-with-the-australians-in-korea","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
