"Sales/posting to the USA suspended". Hard cover laminated pictorial boards, 340pp, b&w photos. A fine copy. In May 1943, a Japanese submarine torpedoed the brilliantly-lit and unarmed Hospital Ship Centaur off Brisbane. She sank in 3 minutes, and 268 people, all non-combattants, were lost.

The authors address the accusations and explore the conjecture in an attempt to solve this 60 year old mystery.…
