| Abstract | The attitudes and behaviours of men of the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) were the consequence of them serving as volunteers in the particular circumstances of a distant and costly war. But they also substantially came out of the background and culture of Australian men at that time, especially working-class men. Identifying and analysing attitudes of AIF men is complicated by the influence of the Anzac legend, which has celebrated their qualities such as independence, a casual approach to authority and discipline and which remains largely unexplored despite the massive lode of primary evidence and the substantial literature available. |
