Description:... From 1941-1975, as a series of conflicts gripped Asia and the Pacific, Australian journalism was often dominated by war reporting from the region. In this groundbreaking study, Prue Torney-Parlicki shows that, in a very real sense, Australia 'descovered' Asia and the Pacific through the eyes of Damien Parer, Osmar White, Denis Warner and other correspondents.
