“The sweep and scope of this unusual book carry the reader from the living past into the living present, with an occasional glimpse into the future, as sixty Aussie Battlers tell their own stories.
Each Battler is a ‘factional’ person, in the sense that his or her story is partly factual and partly imaginary, but every one has the ring of reality.  Their narratives provide a series of illuminating portraits of the lives and lifestyles of sixty very different characters, all from totally different backgrounds, in the Australian environment.”
