Book Launch with General Sir Peter John Cosgrove, AK, CVO, MC

The warm, fascinating memoir of one of Australia’s most popular and prominent public figures. General Sir Peter Cosgrove is one of Australia’s most significant public figures. As a soldier he saw action in Vietnam, winning the Military Cross & rose to the very top of his profession, becoming Chief of the Defence Force. Soon after his retirement from the Army, he was invited to take charge of the relief & rebuilding operation in Queensland after Cyclone Larry.

In 2014, Sir Peter became Australia’s Governor-General. He travelled far & wide, supporting Australians in times of crisis, sadness, joy or celebration, representing us on the world stage with humour, intelligence and a force of personal magnetism.

Sir Peter was introduced by David Elliott, NSW Minister for Police before sitting down to an in-depth Q&A regarding his life and memoir with Sally Loane CEO, Financial Services Council.
