Random House Australia, Sydney, 1999. First Edition. Softcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. First impression. Size: Octavo 8vo (standard book size). 418 pages.

Roden Cutler's list of honours is long and impressive, but it is his sole decoration, the Victoria Cross, that marks him as a hero. Over 800,000 men and women served in the Australian armed forces during the Second World War, but only twenty were awarded the V.C. His story is embedded in Australian history, and part of it. But it is also the story of a man who pulled himself up by his bootstraps to serve his country with courage and dignity in the face of all obstacles. In an age accustomed to public idols with feet of clay, Roden Cutler is the exception: a man whose integrity is as formidable as his humility is astonishing. BW photos & maps Quantity Available: 1.
