This clear and well-written account of the campaign should do much to rescue the forgotten Anzacs from neglect by subsequent generations. -- Jeffrey Grey, Australian Book Review

Forgotten Anzacs is a timely tribute to those who took part in a neglected chapter in our military history. -- Greg Thom, Herald Sun For those of us who were there, this is an outstanding history of both the Australian and New Zealand campaign in 1941. -- Gordon Beal, 2/8th Field Company; prisoner of war, 1941-1945 Forgotten Anzacs is a timely tribute to those who took part in a neglected chapter in our military history. -- Greg Thom, Herald Sun Peter Ewer is one of very few Australian military historians to understand what Anzac means. This is a book that skillfully moves between the battalions of both nations bringing to the forefront whichever component the story demands, regardless of its place of origin. Ewer's true recognition of Anzac nourishes his account and he builds on that strength as he also looks at the campaign from Greek, German, and British perspectives. --Michael McKernan, Canberra Times This book makes fascinating reading and does a long way in recognising these forgotten Anzacs. -- Peter Masters, Australian Defence magazine This clear and well-written account of the campaign should do much to rescue the forgotten Anzacs from neglect by subsequent generations. -- Jeffrey Grey, Australian Book Review This is an important contribution to Australian war literature . . . an engrossing history of a very important Anzac campaign. --Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald
