"I always tell my staff, 'I don't care a damn for your loyalty when you think I am right. the time I want it is when you think I am wrong.'"
Sir John Monash
"the most resourceful general in the whole of the British army"
Lloyd George speaking of John Monash
War Letters of General MonashA personal account of WWI by Australia’s greatest general, who was also probably the best general on the Allied side on the Western Front. John Monash was only a reserve soldier before the war, but as a civil engineer, he grasped earlier than most professional soldiers the necessity for meticulous planning and communication of one’s plans in modern warfare. Contains stirring accounts of the withdrawal from Gallipoli, a two-hour meeting with King George of England in France, and what it felt like to manage tens of thousands of men. Last published in 1934, this edition is edited by Tony McDougall. | |

TOURISM NEWSQantas In Flight Magazine chooses White Hat Cemetery Tour as its featured Australian tour for May
There are many fine historical tours throughout Australia including cemetery tours. From these, the prestigious Qantas In Flight Magazine has chosen the White Hat Tour of Melbourne Cemetery as its featured Australian tour for the May 2007 edition. This tour was also featured by ABC radio on 24 May and will feature in a documentary series on Burke and Wills to be shown on European television in 2008. The tour has been operating for many years and has won praise from a wide range of sources. This is not a dry and stuffy tour but in keeping with all White Hat offerings it is Informed, Intelligent, Independent (and occasionally) Irreverent.
