Kirsty Harris Wangaratta event

Join Belinda from Edgars Books & News and author Kirsty Harris as they discuss Kirsty's book More Than Bombs and Bandages.

More than Bombs and Bandages exposes the false assumption that military nurses only nursed. Based on author Kirsty Harris’ CEW Bean Prize winning PhD thesis, this is a book that is far removed from the ‘devotion to duty’ stereotyping offering an intriguing and sometimes gut wrenching insight into the Australian Army Nursing Service (AANS) during World War I. More than Bombs and Bandages provides rich pickings for all those interested in nursing history, women in the Australian military the application of medical treatments and World War I.

Copies of More Than Bombs and Bandages will be available at the events. Or purchase a copy now instore from Edgars Books & News or via their online store HERE.

Following the talk, Kirsty will sign copies of her book.
