| book description |

'A fascinating unalloyed time-capsule' - Michael Veitch A Mouse at MoresbyÂ contains many previously unseen images of the struggle by Australian servicemen against the Japanese onslaught in New Guinea. Irvine Greenâ€™s collection of diaries, letters and images offers aÂ firsthand view of World War II in New Guinea from 1941â€“1943. As an RAAF photographer, literally in the trenches, he captures the critical time when Port Moresby stood between the invading Japanese and the Australian mainland. Written in real time by someone personally involved in the struggle, the day-to-day commentary in Irvineâ€™s diaries and letters gives a unique and gripping narrative devoid of the foibles of memory or the influences of the passage of time. A must-read for anyone wanting to gain an understanding of the life of a young RAAF serviceman during the years of 1941 to 1945. Compiled by his son, Dr Tony Green, this book honours Irvineâ€™s remarkable archive. Together, father and son bring to life the story Irvine never had the chance to publish â€” until now. â€˜Irvine Green didnâ€™t just see the war â€” he showed it to us.â€™
