Books in the The Official History of Australian Peacekeeping, Humanitarian and Post-Cold War Operations 5 Volume Set series

This is the first comprehensive and official study of Australia's role in the peace enforcement operations that developed at the end of the Cold War. It recounts vital missions to Namibia, Iran and Pakistan/Afghanistan, but focuses primarily on Australia's reaction to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990.

Volume 3 of the official history of Australian peacekeeping, humanitarian and post-cold war operations explores Australia's involvement in six missions following the end of the Gulf War. These missions reflected increasing complexity of peacekeeping, as it overlapped with enforcement of sanctions, weapons inspections, humanitarian aid, election monitoring and peace enforcement.

The Good Neighbour explores the Australian government's efforts to support peace in the Pacific Islands from 1980 to 2006. It tells the story of the deployment of Australian diplomatic, military and policing resources at a time when neighbouring governments were under pressure from political violence and civil unrest.

In their Time of Need is richly detailed, as Steven Bullard weaves together official government records and archival images with the personal narratives and photographs of those who served. This volume is an authoritative and compelling history of Australia's efforts to help their neighbours.
