Hernia Bay: Sydney's Wartime Hospitals at Riverwood by Brian Madden - 2001

Canterbury and District Historical Society, Australia, 2001. Softcover. Very Good Condition. So little is known locally about the US Army Hospital at Herne Bay [now Riverwood] during World War II, that it was confidently believed - and has been accepted ever since - that the hospital was built in the wrong place; that, by some mistake, it should have been constructed at Hervey Bay in Queensland. Only detailed research in the last few years has proved this wrong and the story of the hospital is told for the first time. 208 pages. Illustrated with black and white photographs.
