The book has been read, but it is essentially undamaged. The voyage of the Dunera has been related several times previously; this book, a compilation of original documents and photographs collected over several years, is the 1st time the experience of the internees has been told by them, in their own words. The book also explore the role of the British and Australian authorities, and reproduces official documents from government archives which show that while the Australians were happy to act as jailers for the British, they were far from enthusiastic about the internees remaining once the British government decided that their release could be authorised. -- Rear panel blurb Size: Trade Paperback.
