Briony Hume takes a look back at the life of War Hero - Arthur Seaforth Blackburn. Blackburn did not fit the physical stereotype of the bronzed Anzac, but the scrawny, knobbly-kneed solicitor proved to have a tenacity and courage beyond belief and brought our state the first of the Empire's highest honours - the Victoria Cross. Now his story along with accounts from those he served alongside, have been brought together for the first time by author Andrew Faulkner in his book 'Arthur Blackburn VC'.
