Buy the book "Dust Donkeys and Delusions" now from the military specialists. This book debunks the myth surrounding Private John Simpson Kirkpatrick, known as the 'Man with the Donkey', who is often portrayed as a heroic figure in Australian history. However, based on historical documents, both official and unofficial, it is clear that almost every word spoken or written about Simpson after his death is false. This book does not criticize Simpson himself, but rather aims to expose and correct the myths that have surrounded him.
The author, Graham Wilson, has extensive experience in the Australian Regular Army and the Department of Defence. He is a contract historian with the Department of Veterans' Affairs and has been published in various countries.
