Maestro John Monash : Australia's greatest citizen general
""A perfected modern battle plan is like nothing so much as a score for an orchestral composition, where the various arms and units are the instruments, and the tasks they perform are their respective musical phrases.

"Who was the most innovative general of World War One? For Tim Fischer, the answer has to be Australia's 'Maestro' John Monash, a man who, for all the recognition he received in his lifetime and after, has arguably not been given his proper due.
