'Trackers' is a gritty and moving account that reveals the Australian Army's little-known use of combat tracker dogs during the Vietnam War. A war veteran tells his story with vivid and compelling immediacy, blending the terror of hunting the elusive Viet Cong with the tender relationship between him and his larrikin labrador-kelpi-cross, Caesar.
A graphic portrayal of the timeless reality of war - the horror, the madness, the tedium, the dark humour - 'Trackers' hurls you into a surreal world of seething jungles, random minefields and lethal "friendly fire". Amid the mayhem, the author finds vital refuge in Caesar's playful innocence.
