Simpson and the Donkey Anniversary Edition : The Making of a Legend, Paperback / softback Book

Simpson and the Donkey Anniversary Edition : The Making of a Legend Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The simple tale of Simpson and his donkey is the pre-eminent legend of heroism.

It is the story of a humble water-carrier, a rescuer of wounded men, a tale of compassion, stoic persistence, with a tragic end.

His tale is an integral part of the Anzac story. Across time, a simple tale can acquire a complicated history.

This is what happened to the man with the donkey and is the subject of this book, Simpson's 'afterlife', the legend.
