Book Description
Secondhand. Near fine condition.
For almost two years in WWII, the airspace over north-western Australia was routinely penetrated by Japanese raids, tallying about 70 in total.
In 1943, a small band of inexperienced Australian and British fighter pilots fought to defend north-western Australia, flying against a formidably skilled and proficient opponent.
In this anniversary edition, Anthony Cooper offers a detailed and fascinating history of this unparalleled attack.
