Comments: The book gives a comprehensive listing of the ships and men of the Royal Australian Navy who have paid the supreme sacrifice in the wars of the twentieth century. The action in which the ships of the RAN were involved, not only the ships that died, but also the ones that got away, is covered. There is a full description of each ship, her casualties, battle honours and commanding officers (Wrans who died in RAN shore establishments during WWII are included). There is a photograph of almost every ship.
An invaluable Royal Australian Navy reference book.
