Author talk: Two Good Soldiers, One Great War by Hugh Jones

Two Good Soldiers: One Great War (2024) began with Hugh’s inheritance of a collection of letters belonging to his Tasmanian great-grandfather, Charles Stephen Simmons. Their contents revealed the special affection the Simmons family had for their tenant, and Charles’ military protégé, Ivor Margetts.

This is a must‑attend event for lovers of military history, family historians, and anyone interested in the personal stories that shape Australia’s past.

A Q&A and book signing will follow the talk.

Browse the Sons of Williamstown Great War Honour Board at Williamstown Town Hall and get inspired by Hugh to uncover your own family, military, or local history stories.
