Grey provides a detailed, chronological narrative of Australia’s wars, from the arrival of European settlers at Botany Bay, across more than two hundred years, into the first decade of the 21st Century and the ‘war on terror’. The author sets this history in the contexts of defence and strategic policy, the development of society, and the impact of war and military service on Australia and Australians. It is peerless as an authoritative, single volume account of the arc of Australian military history.
