The Tinpot Navy [#903223]
Free Download The Tinpot Navy: The extraordinary exploits and unsung heroes of Australia's fledgling navy during the Great War
by Anthony Delano
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1761472178 | 336 Pages | True ePUB | 5.16 MB
Fascinating stories from the early years of the Royal Australian Navy, from its founding in 1904 with a few ramshackle ships to feats of great courage in World War I.
Just months before the start of World War I, Winston Churchill withdrew the Royal Navy's most formidable ships from the Pacific. With powerful German cruisers in its northern waters, Australia's fledgeling navy needed to step up.
Seasoned foreign correspondent and RAN veteran Anthony Delano has uncovered surprising stories from those days and earlier. The rogue captain ready to bombard Brisbane. The quick-witted officer who snatched Germany's secret codes. The bold raid on Rabaul and the capture of German colonies across the Pacific. A dangerous marauder blockaded in an African river. The courageous volunteers who raided a U-boat haven. The battle between HMAS Sydney and the cruiser Emden that might not have been quite the glorious victory it once seemed. Captain Guy Gaunt a boy from Ballarat who became a master of intrigue and espionage. The unhappy flagship HMAS Australia and a scandalous mutiny trial.
With little-known stories and a fresh look at familiar ones, The Tinpot Navy is a fascinating account of the origins of Royal Australian Navy, and how it matured into an effective arm of defence in its first major conflict.
'Packed with valiant characters and memorable stories told with Delano's unerring eye for detail and drama.' - Peter Thompson, military historian
