After the fall of Rabaul on 23 January 1942, the NGVR was the only organised unit on the north east New Guinea mainland until the arrival of Kanga force in May 1942 to contain the advance of the Japanese Forces from the coastal areas of Lae, Salamaua and Madang into the interior of New Guinea. For the first time, the full story of the NGVR is told. Includes a thoroughly researched Nominal Roll and a chapter on the CAAD, the Chinese Auxiliary Ambulance Unit. NGVR members participated in the US Forces led Brewer Force that recaptured the Admiralty Islands in March 1944. As a consequence, the NGVR were awarded the US Distinguished Unit Citation - the only Militia Battalion in the Australian Army ever to receive such an award. |

Second revised and enlarged Edition; xv, 502; illustrated hardcover; fine condition. Very Scarce. The author states "Kenneth Povey, in his fine survey of bibliographies of interest to the historian, printed in 1939, states in effect 'that there is no bibliography of Ireland as a whole - there is no great comprehensive work - the nearest substitutes are the catalogues of the large libraries'. Ireland, in short, remained unrepresented by a published work in the field of national bibliography". The first edition of this work, published in 1964, was an atempt to fill this gap in some measure. The second edition is almost three times as long and is much more effective as a bibliographic index covering this still unexplored field. ISBN0853659311. Very scarce. |
