Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Laminated boards, no Jacket. In 1942 when an invasion of Australia seemed imminent it was decided to form a secret unit of mounted troops to keep surveillance on the vulnerable northern coastline. The task was given to an anthropologist and Army adviser, Major William Stanner, who within weeks had in position his under-trained but enthusiastic force of the North Australia Observer Unit. This is a side of our military history that should be read by everyone and particularly those who know or would like to know about the remote outback. Nº de ref. del artículo: 002845
