One American soldier called it "a green hell on Earth". Monsoon-soaked wilderness, debilitating heat, impassable mountains, torrential rivers, and disease-infested swamps - New Guinea was a battleground far more deadly than the most fanatical of enemy troops. Japanese forces numbering some 600,000 men began landing in January 1942, determined to seize the island as a cornerstone of the empire's strategy to knock Australia out of the war.

Excellent! Highly detailed.

The only thing that I didn’t like about it was that several of the names of places in PNG were mispronounced. There was obviously a great deal of research that went into the book, I would suggest that also include correct pronunciation as well for an audiobook. Overall, that is a very minor criticism for an excellent book and an incredible story.
