AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Time Marches Off recounts the adventures of two 'ocker' soldiers catapulted into various futures by a 'toff' of a Sydney University professor. The book is far from a literary masterpiece, but its stereotypes of class, male/female relationships and 1940s society provide a shock to the system far greater than any history textbook. A fascinating retrovision SF period piece.'
