AbstractHistoryArchive Description

"Written from the point of view of an infantryman, the novel is not concerned with the politics of Australia's commitment to the Vietnam War but concentrates rather on the day-to-day experiences of the ordinary soldier preoccupied with surviving."

- The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature (1994).
