Laurens Van Der Post 'His experiences - and the manner in which he handled them - are what have made Weary Dunlop one of our most loved and most respected countrymen.' Herald Sun 'Sir Edward's care and concern for his men and his unbreakable spirit made him a living legend.' The war diaries of Weary Dunlop : Java and the Burma-Thailand Railway 1942-1945 / E.E.
