Description:
Spring Hill, Boolarong first edition - hard cover, illus laminated boards The loss of 'HMAS Sydney' was Australia's greatest and saddest naval loss. It was not simply the magnitude of this loss, but the mystery built up around it; an aura of deception and betrayal added to the grief. This was unnecessary, but those who knew the facts and understood the background were bound by normal oaths of military secrecy. When they were free to speak, their voices were drowned by the clamour of those who knew little and understood less. (edit.) 246 x 165mm., pp. 10, 282, b/w plates. VG ISBN: 0908175728
