Kokoda is the story about Australian army forces, sent to cut-off the overwhelming Japanese advance towards Port Moresby, New Guinea in World War 2. Little is known about the battle in Australia, let alone other parts of the world, but the extraordinary efforts of the soldiers must surely be one of the greatest feats of any war.
The author takes you down, deep into the heart of the jungle along the Kokoda track, with the boys, many of them not old enough to order a drink in bar, as they are confronted by a superior force of veteran Japanese forces. These same Japanese forces had taken the Philippines only weeks before as General Macarthur fled Manila.Softcover book in fair condition - very light foxing periodically
