    The Battle for Shaggy Ridge
    The Battle for Shaggy Ridge
    The extraordinary story of the Australian campaign against the Japanese in New Guinea's Finisterre mountains in 1943-44
    <i>'You climb and climb . . . This is the field of battle . . . tonight some of us will be dead . . . You'll never forget Shaggy Ridge.' - </i>Shawn O'Leary<br/><br/>From the killing ground of Kaiapit to the treacherous heights of the Finisterre Range, for four months in 1943-44 the Australian army fought to drive the Japanese from their mountain strongholds. The most formidable position was the fortress-like Shaggy Ridge, its steep sides rising sharply to a knife-edge crest where battle was joined on a one-man front. <br/><br/>Based on the accounts of over a hundred Australians, Americans and Japanese who served on, around and over the ridge, <i>The Battle for Shaggy Ridge</i> tells the story of this extraordinary struggle for control of the Ramu Valley in New Guinea.
