From the small Victorian town of Tatura, ordinary men answered an extraordinary call — and Our Heroes: Tatura's World War I Roll of Honour stands as a permanent tribute to their sacrifice. Tony Ford chronicles the lives of the local servicemen and women who served during the Great War, weaving together personal histories, service records, and community memory into a rich tapestry of courage and loss that brings the human cost of World War I into sharp, local focus. Rooted in meticulous historical research, this work presents the Roll of Honour as more than a list of names — it is a testament to a community forever changed by the conflicts of 1914–1918. Ford's writing illustrates the deep bond between a small Australian town and a global catastrophe, reminding readers that the grand sweep of history is ultimately composed of individual stories. For anyone with ties to Tatura or a passion for Australian military history, this volume asks a quietly powerful question: how well do we truly remember those who served?
