"Brilliantly researched, beautifully told, The Buna Shots reads like a fast-paced, high-octane thriller that will give you insights into how wars should be fought, managed and perhaps most importantly of all, reported to an anxious world. In The Buna Shots, Stephen Dando-Collins dons his history hat once again to tell the story of two photographs that changed the course of World War Two, and of the men behind the lens whose controversial photographs would challenge our perception of war." PETER MASON, award-winning former Fleet Street journalist, whose mother was an Australian war correspondent during World War Two.
"With The Buna Shots, Stephen Dando-Collins reminds us of his pedigree as the foremost reporter of wartime history. He takes us into the battles of the war in New Guinea and into the lives of those involved, most noticeably photographers George Silk and George Strock. A brilliant book that left me wanting more from this author of great note." GREG ROSS, managing director/publishing editor, The Last Post magazine, and host of 'The Last Post' podcast.
"A fascinating and superby written piece of 'hidden history.' It should be essential reading for students of both journalism and photography." ALEX FRAYNE, photographic artist.
"My warmest congratulations to you on the launch of your 48th book, an outstanding achievement showcasing the importance of preserving and highlighting history of our veterans." HON JEREMY ROCKLIFF MP, Premier of Tasmania.
