Notes

29 unnumbered pages : colour illustrations. Words from the original song: I was only 19 (A walk in the light green) On cover: The iconic song about the Vietnam War that helped change a nation Summary: "Townsville lined the footpath as we marched down to the quay. This clipping from the paper shows us young and strong and clean. And there's me in my slouch hat, with my SLR and greens. God help me, I was only nineteen." John Schumann's unforgettable lyrics about the Vietnam War are etched in our memories and into our history books. Now they've been warmly brought to life by one of Australia's illustrators.
