Produktinformationen zu „War and Beach (ePub)“

World War II as it happened in a tiny Queensland coastal town. The book is researched carefully using detailed war records and recollections of those who were here.

Much of this has been hidden from the world until now. Events at the breathtakingly beautiful tropical village of Mission Beach and on its nearby islands are quite surprising and somewhat appalling when viewed through a 2020 lens.

Dunk Island was a vital naval training ground for the US and Australian naval fleets and its secret airforce radar station was also a vital cog in the war. The district's beaches, islands, and rainforests were used for testing hideous chemical warfare weapons. This reveals harsh realities that would be familiar to many small towns that were prepared to do what it takes to help the allied forces win and what it was really like being so near to the action in the brutal Pacific War.

Autoren-Porträt von Ken Gray

This is Ken Gray's first book. He lives in the small town of Mission Beach in far north Queensland, Australia in a beautiful rainforest overlooking the Coral Sea. Having read every history written about the district he noted that the 1940s were entirely missing. Much of what happened in this district was hidden from view by censorship at one time but with dogged determination and skilled guidance from veteran war researcher, Peter Dunn, who created the fabulous Australia@War web pages, Ken uncovered the naked truth and unraveled our war mysteries. There are many small Queensland towns that made important contributions to the Allied war effort and most of their stories remain untold. It takes an enormous amount of research to discover the truth but now one more town has its war records accessible to future generations.
