Biography & Memoir History Australiana
Michael P. Tracey’s Australian Prisoners of War delivers a vivid, illustrated history of Aussie POWs from the Boer War to Vietnam. This 1999 hardcover, wrapped in its original dust jacket, gathers first-hand accounts and archival photos to honour resilience in captivity.
Collectors value the volume for its vintage ADF Journal binding and generous artwork, yet it remains readable for anyone curious about Australian military history. Tracey balances scholarly detail with human stories, making the book both reference and tribute.
The copy is clean and tight—no writing, no dog-ears—just light jacket scuffing and occasional page-edge marks from shelf life. A solid addition to a war or Australiana shelf, ready for immediate enjoyment or gifting.
