Kokoda 1942: Australians in the Pacific War by Dr Richard Reid is a compelling military history that chronicles the harrowing campaign fought along the Kokoda Track during World War II. Reid presents the strategic importance of the battle, illustrating how Australian forces, many of them young and inexperienced, resisted the Japanese advance through unforgiving terrain and brutal conditions. The book argues that Kokoda was a defining moment in Australia’s wartime identity, shaping national consciousness and military legacy. Drawing on personal accounts, photographs, and official records, Reid details the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of the soldiers involved.
