Comments: Jum Bevan served in the 5th Field Artillery Brigade, AIF. In this dramatised biography, his son seeks to imagine the pivotal wartime experiences that scarred the body and spirit of this complex and ultimately self destructive character.

The author weaves together family reminiscences, material from his father’s notebook and brigade diaries with recreations of battlefield life and action (including the Somme).
