The story centres around the intertwined lives of Derek, the son of Australian missionaries at the Gona Mission, and Morso, a native Papuan.  When all women and children are evacuated from PNG Derek and Morso disappear into the jungle.  When the Japanese come they become part of a small band of Diggers who save Australia from invasion.  In Angels of Kokoda racism, heroism, death and savagery go hand in hand with compassion, bravery beyond belief and a mateship that has no equal.    Described by former Premier of NSW, Bob Carr as ,a unique contribution to young peoples literature, Angels of Kokoda is a beautiful and touching look at an important part of Australia's history.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43977603678427,"sku":"9780734408495-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/products\/9780734408495.jpg?v=1679542069","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780734408495-secondhand-angels-of-kokoda","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
