About this product

Product Information

No surrender and no retreat. When the 9th Division of the AIF withdrew into the Libyan fortress town of tobruk early in April 1941, a seige began that was to make its mark on the course of WWII and the popular memory of a nation. tobruk 1941 reveals in startling and poignant detail the facts of day-to-day life during the seige. It shows the grim work of the soldiers and anti-aircraft gunners on the front line, the ceaseless battle for the harbour, and the bravery of the photographers and journalists who covered the seige. It illuminates in myriad ways the toughness and the resilience of the soldiers as they battled the heat, the flies, the rats, the boredom and the savagery while doing their bit to win the war.

As described, well packaged and prompt delivery - excellent service and highly recommended. n.b. I loved your neat cursive writing on the envelope - it took me back to my primary school days at Baldface Primary School, NSW, in the 1950’s where I learnt to write using a slope card.

    Compelling account of our Australian troops heroic action in holding Rommel from advancing on to Egypt and beyond. Lots of photos. My father was one of the 9th division soldiers involved in the fighting. The hardships the troops endured is something to think about today and they were all volunteers! Strong men and boys who fought for their mates and country and still had a smile on their faces. I am so proud of my father and his friends after reading this book. Thanks Mr Cochrane you have done a good job putting this true story into print
