'A novel recounting the lives of some of the troops who ended up caught in Tobruk, surrounded by the German army for some 242 days, from the time before they enlisted through to the eventual departure of the ones who survived. This is not a book on military history at all, but rather a story about soldiers' lives.' (Publication summary)

1 4 y separately published work icon My Kind of Country : The Making of the Australian Character : Yarns, Ballads, Legends and Traditions Bill Wannan (editor), Adelaide : Rigby , 1967 Z864102 1967 anthology poetry short story humour

'Your typical 'little Aussie Battler' liberally laces his conversation with the great Australian adjective, has an irreverent attitude to the Boss, and a decidedly materialistic outlook on life. These lively yarns, ballads and legends collected by Bill Wannan ... show that all these traits were apparent more than a hundred years ago. As well as providing hilarious reading this helps to explain the making of the Australian character.' (Publication summary)
