The 2/9th Battalion in the African desert and the jungles of the Pacific.

After fighting with great distinction in the North African deserts the soldiers of the Australian 2/9th Battalion went on to establish a record of service in the Pacific war that was to prove second to none.

Bill Spencer's story starts in the Great Depression, the economic disaster that moulded the character of the soldiers who fought in the Second World War. Bill and his mates were put to the ultimate test in a succession of battlefields from Giarabub and Tobruk in North Africa to Milne Bay, Buna, Sanananda, Shaggy Ridge and Balikpapan in the Pacific.

Bill was a young soldier who participated in these battles. He was also a keen observer. As an author he has captured not only some of the most critical Australian fighting of the Second World War, but, most importantly, has provided a unique insight into the men who fought these battles and what they achieved.

Contains black and white maps, photographs and illustrations.
