A great general — but was he really the greatest?
General Monash, the only Jew to command an army in the First World War, has been described in Australia as an outsider who won the war. But how much of an outsider was Monash, and how much of the war did Australia win? And did Monash write his own story?
Written and presented by Dr Mark Dapin.
