The book Kokoda by Paul Ham I found to be a good read as throughtout the years I have heard stories from the old diggees and a lot of those stories were in the book. Another book is those ragged bloody heros by peter brune which mainly deals with the 39th battalion and the 21st brigade along the kokoda track to teh gona beach. Another one I have looked at is a bastard of a plac also by Peter Brune about the australians in Papua at kokoda, milne bay, gona, buna and sanananda. Jon if you would like any of these books matthew from mount forest is coming to australia in february we could possibly arrange to get one back to you.

Max...keep me in mind WRT Matt's visit, and the possibility of getting more books about this campaign.

Everything worked out well the last time...(grease gun, Tim Tams, Slouch hat ).
