Leading a small force of Ethiopian freedom fighters on an epic trek across the harsh African bush from the Sudan, the small incursion force entered Italian-occupied Ethiopia and began waging a guerilla war against the 250,000-strong Italian army. One of these men, Ken Burke, was Duncan McNab's uncle. Using a combination of original research and personal anecdotes, McNab tells the little known story of Mission 101, and how a small group of Australians under British command helped to free a nation.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: History, Military HistoryRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
