2nd (revised & condensed) ed. Paperback octavo, very good condition, black & white text-photos, faint foxing edges, top spine little bumped, last page partly attached inside rear cover, top edge partly uncut (minor tearing when opened), minor edgewear. 191 pp. Full biographies of all Australians who have won the Victoria Cross,…the supreme decoration for gallantry in battle awarded to Commonwealth forces. Since the book's first publication, four more Australians have been given the famous decoration during the Vietnam war. In this new edition, the stories of these 96 men have been completely revised to include the latest research and each entry contains a full account of the action which led to the award. The book has an introduction on the history of the Victoria Cross itself, and two appendices, one on Victoria Cross winners who did not serve with Australian units but yet had connections with Australia, and another on winners of the George Cross. (Originally published, 1963, edited by Wigmore and Harding.).
