Why did I write this book? Over the years I have at various times been in discussion with people who had served in the Darwin area during World War II. I was aware that many of the individuals were dissatisfied with existing accounts of events in Darwin from 1940-42. I decided to investigate. But this time it would have a different emphasis. In past accounts of the defence of Darwin, little has been made of the activities of the smaller Army units or the Army plan for Darwin defence. Size: 180mm - 250mm. 403 pages. Previous owner's name in ink. Covers have some shelf wear as well as some bumping to corners and extremities. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 2-3 kilos. Category: Military & Warfare; Australia; History. ISBN: 0646250582. ISBN/EAN: 9780646250588. Inventory No: 54327.
