General Sir Peter Cosgrove interviewed by Emeritus Professor Richard Broome
ZOOM Join from anywhere in the worldThe RHSV is thrilled to invite our members and friends to join our President, Richard Broome, in a Zoom conversation with General Sir Peter Cosgrove AK AC (Mil) CVO MC (Retd) , one of Australia's most significant public figures who has spent a life-time making history. Sir Peter's memoir allows us an incredible insight into the role and world of Australia's Governor-General. He was there as two prime ministers were toppled by their own party. He was there through disasters both natural and man-made, such as the destruction of MH17. He was there for world leaders, and for ordinary Australians. You Shouldn't Have Joined ... is a true reflection of the man himself, filled with intelligence, forthrightness, compassion and a brilliant eye for a telling anecdote.
