As part of the Centenary of Federation, the Department of Veterans' Affairs, in collaboration with ABC Radio, launched the Great Search, inviting veterans and their families to come forward with their wartime memorabilia. The responses included many recollections of the immense human drama of Australians at war. Simply Hell let Loose is a collection of some of the most poignant, moving or unusual stories. It encompasses all conflicts in which Australians took part in the twentieth century. There are stories of naked diggers at Gallipoli, nurses evacuating from Greece, war correspondents in Vietnam, aircrew lost in the western desert and a mother writing letters to a son whose fate she may never know. Simply Hell let Loose lets the various individuals caught up in their various wars speak for themselves. They tell of acts of heroism, compassion and endurance and bring the experience of war powerfully and unforgettably to life. ; 245 x 175mm; x, 236 pages
