Mission Down Under by Joan Douglas Embry

Famous, highly decorated aviator and war hero – Sir Basil Embry – decided to live out his dream in retirement, carving out the family fortunes in heavily timbered bush in Western Australia.  Challenges and hardship were already in his DNA and seizing opportunities had always been his philosophy in life – whether leading his airborne squadron on flak ridden raids, or diving into a manure heap to escape from his German captors.
