Kokoda: 75th Anniversary Edition

Author(s): Peter FitzSimons

War

Kokoda was a defining battle for Australia, where a small force of young, ill-equipped young men engaged an experienced and hitherto unstoppable Japanese force on a narrow, precarious jungle track. This book tells the Kokoda story in a gripping and moving style.
