Description:


On 9 August 1918, at Chipilly Spur overlooking the Somme River, an entire British Army Corps is held up by German machine gunners.

The battle has raged for 30 hours and more than 2000 men have fallen. Then, two Australian sergeants, Jack Hayes and Harold Andrews, go absent without leave and cross the Somme ahead of British lines. Seeing that the British advance is stopped, they re-cross the river, gather four mates and return to drive the Germans off the spur.

The extraordinary feats of the Chipilly Six and the personal stories of these diggers have been overlooked. Historian Lucas Jordan weaves a compelling tale of the lives of the soldiers, chronicling their return home and years after service, through a pandemic, the Great Depression, another world war and the very first Anzac Day dawn service.

˜The Chipilly Six were extraordinary men in extraordinary times. Lucas Jordan reveals a wider story of Australia™s Great War veterans as they battled a nation forgetting, a bitter Depression, another World War and beyond. This is a remarkable insight into a vanishing world™ ” Bill Gammage, Emeritus Professor, Humanities Research Centre, ANU

˜An absolute cracker of a story. No one ” and I literally mean no one! ” is more equipped to write a compelling book about the remarkable story of the Chipilly Six.™ ” Ross McMullin, author of Life So Full of Promise

˜A superb piece of investigative historical storytelling. Lucas Jordan is part of a new generation of military historians. He is a bright star.™ ” Peter Stanley, author of Bad Characters: Sex, Crime, Murder and the Austra

Sturdy
Color: No Stuffing Blue Eel
It’s has held up pretty good for my aggressive chewer dog. She typically tore these types of toys apart immediately. One of the ears she pulled off right away but the toy itself has stayed intakes (so far). It keeps her occupied long enough and she drags it everywhere with her.

size is small
Color: No Stuffing Blue Eel
Smaller than I anticipated but my dog enjoys it. After 3 days it is already getting ripped a little bit where the treats get hidden so not sure how long it will last. My dog is about 40 lbs.

5 Star Product vs. Destroyer of All Toys for Dogs
Style: Squirrel
Hey, just wanted to check in and let you know we got the product, it's exactly as it was described. Any other dog would have had this toy for years. Our dog bit the leg off and found both squeakers free of the toy within 10 minutes of having it unsupervised. He really is a good boy, and you make a really good product. He just has this super power to demolish ANY toy that's made for an "aggressive chewer". It was worth the shot!

Almost Indestructable.
Style: Squirrel
We have an aggressive chewer that has yet to be able to crack this one open.  It's so indestructible that ours gives up on it and only plays with it infrequently. So the minus 1 star is more about the dogs preference, maybe.  But make no mistake, this is made better than any other toy I have ever seen.
