Good Sons - Greg Hall

Author Greg Hall has penned a book based on World War One and the stories of three young Oamaru men who answer the call of duty and find themselves on the dangerous front lines on the other side of the world. The book is fiction but uses actual letters sent from soldiers 100 years ago and relies on the eye witness accounts of events. He also uses newspaper clippings published at the time to bring alive the three fictional characters. Greg Hall joins Megan Whelan to talk about his book and the upcoming commemoration of 100 years since the disastrous battle at Passchendaele.
