Description:
Boolarong Press, 2011. New book, 173 pages. The initial Australian and British victory over Rommels Afrika Korps on Easter Monday 1941 at Tobruk was Germanys first defeat in World War II. Incongruously the vital actions of Queenslands 2/15 Battalion on that day have been generally ignored. For the first time, this investigation places that lost body of infantrymen nearly four miles from the outer perimeter near El Adem crossroads. There they were dug in around two gallant Royal Horse Artillery batteries, which incurred heavy losses in turning around a concerted Panzer attack. In that battle the 2/15 A Company delivered the final blow to the accompanying German infantry, led by the formerly invincible Lt Colonel Gustav Ponath who was killed in the field. This ably researched and intriguing episode redresses the brave 2/15s subsequent sense of injustice.. Soft Cover. As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Description:
Kelvin Grove DC Queensland: Brisbane History Group, 2005. Limited . Soft cover. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Some recent Scottish historians consider that Australian researchers hsve been too preoocupied with recording the colonial fortunes of successful Scottish minority which could not be anything but successful, given their financial backing, superior education and influential contacts. It has been argues instead that insufficient notice has been taken of "invisible" Scots - the women, criminals, labourers and servants who were hardly failures. Accordingly, this collection of twelve papers aims at redressing that imbalance by featuring memebers of the Scottish proletariat as well as focusing on the "movers and shakers" of the Moreton Bay District before 1860" (back cover) Limited first edition of 300 copies. xii, 206 pages.
