A Bastard of a Place: The Australians in Papua, Kokoda, Milne Bay, Gona, Buna, Sanananda
Peter Brune
The story of the five battles that changed
Australia forever, this compelling narrative incorporates hundreds of
interviews with the soldiers who fought at Kokoda, Milne Bay, Gona,
Buna, and Sanananda in 1942 and 1943. Revealed are the very real and
engaging experiences of Generals MacArthur and Blamey and other senior
Australian commanders who sacrificed many of their senior field officers
as scapegoats to protect their own positions, assisted in the making of
false legends, and lied about the outcome of the men who fought the
battles.
