More about the book
The narrative delves into the events surrounding the bombing of Darwin by the Japanese air force on 19 February 1942, a pivotal moment in Australian history often shrouded in mystery. Timothy Hall, granted unprecedented access to official reports, uncovers the detailed accounts of that fateful day, shedding light on the chaos and consequences that ensued. The exploration reveals not only the military actions but also the broader implications, as noted by Sir Paul Hasluck, who characterized it as "a day of national shame."
