Hardly a Challenge: A story of love, sadness and determination

By Max Thornton

Hardly a Challenge gives the reader a first-class ticket to travel with an exceptionally persistent man from the early 1940s. It's a true account of the statement, 'To get the rainbow, you first have to weather the storm'.

You will share the best and worst with Max and his loved ones as they discover luck rarely comes free - you have to earn it, and you'll find some luck usually goes along for the ride. It shows the true meaning of Aussie grit and to never give up reaching for your dreams.

The reader will come face to face, along with Max, with people of no substance and utterly lacking in morals along with those of courage and compassion. This heartfelt story will bring a smile to the reader's face and a tear to their eye as life gives them examples of how it can bare its teeth.
