Copyright (2005) The Australian Archaeological Institute At Athens

...at the Hellenic Club of Canberra on 6 February 2005.

The Canberra Friends of The Australian Archaeological Institute at Athens were proud to host, jointly with the Hellenic Club, the launch of Volume III of Australians and Greeks, the final instalment of Hugh Gilchrist’s monumental work of history in February 2005.

Hugh is of course a stalwart of the Friends and one of its founding Vice-Presidents. And so the Friends were also delighted to see the recognition by the government of Hugh’s work with the award of the Medal of the Order of Australia.

The book was launched by Australia’s
returning Ambassador to Greece, Stuart Hume.

Over 150 people attended the launch, many of them Friends, and it was a wonderful evening.

- John Kalokerinos, President.
