Hugh Dolan

    Hugh Dolan, un "Squadron Leader" de l'armée de l'air australienne, apporte une perspective unique à ses écrits. Sa carrière militaire, qui a débuté comme soldat dans l'armée britannique et l'a mené à servir en Bosnie, lui a donné un aperçu approfondi de la planification stratégique et de l'importance du renseignement. Dolan, qui recherche actuellement les batailles aériennes au-dessus de Gallipoli, explore comment l'histoire s'écrit dans la pratique. Son œuvre littéraire aborde souvent des thèmes du service militaire, de l'histoire et des motivations de ceux qui choisissent de servir.

      Why did British Army Red Coats fire on a group of miners hidden behind a crude wooden stockade in Eureka in 1854? Why did soldiers from two famous British regiments attack a group of gold miners? The central character, Bernie, lived with his parents on the goldfields and played a key role in events leading up to the battle at the Eureka Stockade, despite his age. He sees the murder of the miner that sparked armed protest. We see the growing unrest and the fighting through his eyes. People on both sides of the conflict believed that their actions were correct and justifiable. Readers will see actual letters from the governor, complaints from angry miners, as well as diaries and newspaper articles.
