Description:
Adelaide, Rigby first edition - h/c in d.j. In Canberra, Adam Frankau translated an ancient document proving that China laid claim to Australia long before Captain Cook. He knew too much, and so was marked for death. Skilled saboteurs immobilised the country's navy and air force while urban guerillas destroyed Australia's resources. Awaiting the onslaught, he became prey to a hunting party of Aborigines - this was 'A Nasty Little War'. 220 x 140mm., pp. 286, contents - no inscriptions, d.j. sl. rub. on back - no tears or chips.
