About the Book

Travel with Jason Freeman, a young Australian conscript, as he journeys from a loving home into the troubled times of a society blighted and torn apart by the Vietnam War. Witness a young generation struggle with the changes being wrought upon it from an emerging sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll culture. Follow David, a young man from the old rich section of Melbournian society, as he successfully navigates all the challenges that his changing society throws at him. Meet two young women of Melbourne, Sarah who shows us the dignity that comes from her compassion and understanding, and Clarissa who displays the confidence and outspoken independence of her new ideas. Watch as Nick and Toby try to lock themselves away from the personal suffering of their past. This period in world history became what John Kenneth Galbraith referred to as The Age of Uncertainty. An uncertainty that embraced the whole Free World, and, to a large extent, is still with us today.

Review :
A strong, yet relatable social commentary that seemingly effortlessly clarifies many of the issues that surrounded this conflict while still weaving an emotionally engaging tale. - Alison Trimper Camaraderie is a feature in this book. The final pages left me in tears. Brilliant book. - Judith Flitcroft
