The Unseen Anzac: How an Enigmatic Explorer Created Australiaa's World War I Photographs by Jeff Maynard
[A] thrilling, wonderfully researched book. Every Australian should read it. Almost every page leaves you astonished.
Tony Wright, The Saturday Age
George Hubert Wilkins is not a name which everybody knows [but] it should be. As a collection of ripping yarns The Unseen Anzac would be hard to beat, and it’s extraordinary that Wilkins has dropped out of the public consciousness.
Nick Goldie, Cooma-Monaro Express
[This] understated, well-honed biography reveals the maverick, eternally restless Wilkins as a man who refused to define his life through war alone.
The Saturday Paper
Hubert Wilkins was one of the most extraordinary individuals Australia has produced … Maynard is a great explorer too, tracking down long-forgotten letters and diaries … A great ride.
