    No idea but is apparently selling well. I'll whiz into the shops tomorrow and have a proper look.

    I have to admit I know little about the North Africa campaign (except a little about the air war) but coincidently I added this book to my wishlist a couple of days ago:

    The Longest Siege: Tobruk - the Battle That Saved North Africa: Amazon.co.uk: Robert Lyman: Books

    Have you seen it?
    I have not read this one though in the past few years a few books have been released down here about our role in the war against Germany in particular Tobruk yet also Greece and Syria etc. This has again brought the deeds of those great people of WW2 to the attention of mainstream Australia, which is great as it started to appear to me, that many were not bothering to know what went on and the difference the men and women of the period made to the world.
