Event Description
Since the 1980s, thousands of veterans have returned to Việt Nam. Why have they done so? What do their stories mean? And how do their journeys connect to the ANZAC legend?
Dr Mia Martin Hobbs explores these questions and more in her award-winning book, 'Return to Vietnam: An Oral History of American and Australian Veterans’ Journeys'. Come along and hear this inspiring author and emerging historian as she shares her findings.
