I Was Only Nineteen

By John Schumann · Illustrated by Craig Smith About

“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 best-loved illustrators.
