Book launch
The Hero Maker
Fullers Bookshop
The Dam Busters, The Great Escape and Reach for the Sky were all written by Paul Brickhill. 2016 marks the 100th anniversary of his birth and the 25th anniversary of his death.
In The Hero Maker, award-winning historical author and biographer Stephen Dando-Collins exposes the contradictions of one of Australia’s most successful, but troubled, writers. Brickhill’s extraordinary story – from the youth with a debilitating stutter to Sydney Sun journalist to Spitfire pilot and POW to feted author – explodes vividly to life on the centenary of his birth.
Join us for the launch of The Hero-Maker at Fullers Bookshop.
