introduction by Eric Lomax.
"A heart-rending story of human fortitude set in the jungles of Malaya during the Japanese occupation, where a group of European women and children struggle to survive on a forced march. After the war, in Australia, Jean and Joe dream of surmounting the past and transforming his one-horse outback town into a thriving community like Alice Springs." -- Amazon
