Description


More than a memoir, Peter Pinney's acclaimed trilogy is a classic of the New Guinea Campaign. Johnno's illicit diaries were a gesture of defiance towards his detested military overlords throughout a courageous tour of duty. Even the Japanese were appalled by the skill and ferocity of these Australian "barbarians". Three volumes combined into 1 book. "The Barbarians, A Soldiers New Guinea Diary"; "The Glass Cannon, A Bougainville Diary 1944-45; "The Devils Garden, Soloman Islands War Diary 1945". Written as Fiction, but based on true events.
