BOOK: BLAMEY, THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF BY DAVID HORNER WW2 AUSTRALIA.

Description

Allen & Unwin, 1998. Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Blamey was a controversial figure. This study, based on extensive research, and drawing on the author’s deep understanding of the Army and the Second World War, goes beyond the controversies to examine Blamey’s achievements as a commander, policy-maker and administrator. It does not overlook Blamey’s weaknesses, mistakes and human foibles, but seeks to balance these against an assessment of his performance when Australia faced its biggest challenge. ** There is a presentation note written on the title page**.
