Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The strategic importance of Malta sitting astride both the Axis and Allied supply routes in the Mediterranean was obvious to both sides during WW2. As a result the Island became the focal point in a prolonged and dreadful struggle that cost the lives of thousands of servicemen and civilians. After setting the scene for the action, this book tells the story of the Island's stand against the might of the Axis powers that led to the unprecedented award of the George Cross to the whole by King George VI. It not only covers the struggle by the British and Maltese forces on the ground but the vicious fighting in the skies above. At one point the Island's only aircraft were the three antiquated Gloster Gladiators, nicknamed Faith, Hope and Charity. Then of course there was the naval effort to run convoys through with essential supplies not just of war material and oil but food for the starving population. The losses endured were appalling but repeated attempts to run the gauntlet had to be made. This was indeed a great siege involving every man and women on the Island. David Wragg tells the story using many first hand accounts and yet skilfully explains the strategic situation. The result is an inspiring book worthy of the courage shown by the Islanders and their defenders. AUTHOR: Born into a naval family in 1946 David Wragg was educated in England and Malta. He has worked in journalism and PR , writing for The Sunday Telegraph and Spectator and Scotsman. Retired as head of Corporate Communications with the RBS to become a consultant and author. Has published with Harper Collins, Weidenfeld and Nicolson, Suttons, Hale, and others. Lives in Edinburgh. 32 b/w illustrations David Wragg is a highly experienced professional author and respected military historian. He knows Malta well and has researched this book on the ground.
