by Peter Cochrane
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.
