Anzac Labour explores the horror, frustration and exhaustion surrounding working life in the Australian Imperial Force during the First World War. Based on letters and diaries of Australian soldiers, it traces the history of work and workplace cultures through Australia, the shores of Gallipoli, the fields of France and Belgium, and the Near East.
Industry Reviews

"Wise's book makes a useful contribution towards the erosion of the tendency towards ancestor worship of Australian soldiers of the Great War, which is too commonly the dominant theme in popular narratives; and for this it is to be welcomed." (Jeffrey Grey, Labour History, May, 2015)
