Tells how Australian crews, in a handful of Hudson bombers and Catalina flying boats, took the fight to the Japanese. Draws on eyewitness accounts and combat reports to shed new and exciting light on a neglected episode in Australian military history. This is not merely an 'aviation' story, but a compelling tale of men at war - on both sides - in a harsh physical environment. This was a time when every flight proved an epic, and every man a hero.
