AUSTRALIAN MILITARY

First Edition. Signed by Author.
What did happen just off the Western Australian coast on 19 November, 1941? Certainly a tragedy: 600 men were killed when the HMAS Sydney was torpedoed by a German cruiser; but why? Olsen sets out to answer these questions, and in doing so, pulls apart the accepted theories about the causes of Australia’s greatest maritime disaster. Illustrations. # 280215/0318/0420/1020.0221D/021221/151123 pp ix, 431
