Description

Australia’s premier memorials to the First World War were its memorial avenues of trees  where Lucas poignantly wrote, “each memorial tree represents a life”.  Ballarat, having coined the term “avenue of honour”, went on to popularise these avenues as a form of memorial throughout the nation. This book concentrates on what was originally a form of memorialisation to those who served in the Great War, a form that was then unique to Australia.
