More about the book
Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative explores Australia's strategic role after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbour. With General McArthur establishing his Pacific headquarters in Brisbane, the city became vital for troop resupply and civilian support. To bolster public morale amid the war, a plan emerged to create newsreel films and articles aimed at reassuring Australians of their safety from the Japanese threat. The story highlights the intersection of media, war, and civilian life during a tumultuous period in history.
