Green Armour by Osmar White

AUSTRALIAN WAR CLASSICS
PRESENTED BY E. E. (WEARY) DUNLOP

A vivid and compelling firsthand account of the horrors of war in the jungle, where the mountains, the rains, the swamps, the rivers, and the blazing sun were foes even more merciless than the enemy.
NEW YORK TIMES

Journalist Osmar White's gripping story of the Australian and American forces' struggle against the Japanese invasion of New Guinea in 1942-43 is stark, vivid, chilling.

White is true to his sources - four, 'dog-eared notebooks' and his original newspaper dispatches - but it is his sharp recollection of the terrible battles and the courage and endurance of his friends, etched forever on his memory, that make Green Armour truly unforgettable.

White is a first-class writer, with an extraordinary story to tell.
