RALPH HONNER KOKODA HERO - Peter Brune

A great read as Peter Brune had close insight having been a friend with Ralph Honner and had personal access to his letters and writings. One of the main differences in this new book is that Brune has walked the track and flown over it too, helping greatly in his disruptions and writing.

The book contains gripping, action-packed descriptions of the fighting in North Africa, Greece, Crete and Papua New Guinea. It is the story of a remarkable man, it covers events from Honner's adolescence in Australia through to his distinguished political and diplomatic career, spanning nearly a century of his nation's history.
