‘Weary’ book promotional tour comes to Horsham
PROLIFIC Australian history writer, Peter FitzSimons, will be in Horsham next month as part of a massive 26-day tour to publicise his latest work, this time on the iconic war hero, Sir Edward ‘Weary’ Dunlop.
With typical Aussie nickname logic – Dunlop ‘tyres’, then ‘tired’, then ‘weary’ – the name of Edward ‘Weary’ Dunlop is a well known part of the nation’s World War II folklore. His story has been newly explored in an engaging narrative format by Australian history writer, Peter FitzSimons in his latest book, The Courageous Life of Weary Dunlop. Mr FitzSimons will be in Horsham (and earlier in the day in Stawell) on November 17 to discuss the research and sign copies of the book, which will also be for sale.
