Against the Odds

This is the story of the crucial victories of an Australian "handful of kids" over the Japanese on the Kokoda Track and at Milne Bay in 1942 and 1943 during World War Two. Its unique feature is that the story is told by an active participant, Peter Brent - one of the "kids" - and his friends during the campaigns. Any comment on the theme, the writing or the marketability of the novel will be greatly appreciated.
