What was the reality of their captivity? \u003cem\u003eBeyond Surrender\u003c\/em\u003e presents for the first time the diversity of the Australian 'behind-the-wire' experience, dissecting fact from fiction and myth from reality. \u003cem\u003eBeyond Surrender\u003c\/em\u003e examines the impact that different types of camps, commandants and locations had on surrender, survival, prison life and the prospects of escape. It considers the attitudes of Australian governments to those who had surrendered, the work of relief agencies and the agony of families waiting at home for their husbands, brothers and fathers to be freed. Covering several conflicts and diverse sites of captivity, \u003cem\u003eBeyond Surrender\u003c\/em\u003e showcases new research from Kate Ariotti, Joan Beaumont, Lachlan Grant, Jeffrey Grey, Karl James, Jennifer Lawless, Peter Monteath, Melanie Oppenheimer, Aaron Pegram, Lucy Robertson, Seumas Spark and Christina Twomey.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"MUP Academic","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52530941493528,"sku":"9780522866209","price":24.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/beyond-surrender-australian-prisoners-of-war-in-the-twentieth-century-paperback-softback-9780522866209","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
