 Daniel Reynaud - Author- Book " The Man the Anzacs Revered "

This stirring biography of William "Fighting Mac" McKenzie, The Man the Anzacs Revered, is being re-launched to mark 110 years since the Gallipoli campaign of 1915. A work of careful historical research and a riveting read, Reynaud tells the story of the most famous chaplain in the Australian Imperial Force of World War One - a man once central to the Anzac narrative, now, sadly, almost forgotten. A chaplain who railed against booze, brothels, betting and bad language; William McKenzie was one of the most famous Anzacs. His popularity was said to rival Australia’s wartime prime minister and upon his return to Australia in 1918, he was greeted by a crowd of 7,000 people.
