More about the book
Focusing on the Empire's Patriotic Fund established in 1901, this book explores its role in supporting dependants of soldiers from the Boer War and those returning home due to injuries or illness. It highlights a pioneering effort in Australia to address the impacts of war, moving beyond the typical portrayal of war victims. John McQuilton analyzes applications to the fund, revealing the influence of class and gender, and encourages further exploration of repatriation history and social welfare in early 20th-century Australia.
