Nedlands, University of Western Australia Press, 2000. first edition - h/c in d.j. The disappearance of 'Sydney' is one of the greatest maritime mysteries in Australian history. Many attempts have been made to unravel the events and answer questions raised by this extraordinary episode. But no account has so far managed to cope convincingly with the problems and puzzles.

This book looks at depth at these unaswered questions. 247 x 180mm., pp. ix + 431, b/w plates, fold-out map, near fine.
