Download or read book Darwin 1942 written by Timothy Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 19 February 1942 the Japanese air force bombed Darwin. Whilst this fact is well known, very few people know exactly what happened. Timothy Hall was the first writer to be given acess to all the official reports of the time and as a result he has been able to reveal exactly what happened on that dreadful day – a day which Sir Paul Hasluck (17th Governor-General of Australia) later described as ‘a day of national shame’. The sequence of events in Darwin that day certainly did not reflect the military honour that the War Cabinet wanted people to believe. On the contrary, for what really happened was a combination of chaos, panic and, in many cases, cowardice on an unprecented scale.

Download or read book Routledge Library Editions: World War II in Asia written by Timothy Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 1752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 4 volumes in this set, originally published between 1980 and 1983, bring to light and focus on the conflict between Japan and Australia and Japan and the USA. Timothy Hall’s volumes, richly illustrated with black & white photographs, used highly contentious documents as their sources and give fascinating insights into a period of Australian history which is sometimes less than gloious. John J. Sbrega’s tour de force is not only one of the most extensive annotated bibliographies on the USA and Japan in World War 2 ever published, but it also provides invaluable information on lesser known but no less important aspects of the conflict.

Book excerpt: This story is a well-written account of a round-trip voyage from New York to Hawaii. The voyage on board a full-rigged timber ship takes place at the end of the 19th century. The story is written in the form of a memoir of the author, who was a member of a team who had just turned 18 at the time.

A reader learns certain aspects of rigging, sail handling, and other jobs aboard a full-rigged merchant ship during this time period. Thus, it is an interesting read to anyone who has worked on square-rigged boats who will enjoy this book.
