The rich cast of characters in Ross McMullin’s Life So Full of Promise includes a popular doctor, a brilliant cricketer, and an exceptionally talented barrister who was a potential prime minister. With their families and friends also conspicuous in the narratives, Life So Full of Promise is a revealing window into a defining era for Australia. It illuminates what the war was like at home and at the sharp end. Life So Full of Promise provides insights into the experiences of Australians before, during and after the war, whether they were combatants or civilians, or soldiers’ wives or parents.
