Dobbie: Defender of Malta is a historical non-fiction book written by S. Maxwell Coder. The book tells the story of General William Dobbie, a British military commander who played a crucial role in the defense of the island of Malta during World War II. The book begins with an introduction to the strategic importance of Malta, a small island located in the Mediterranean Sea, and the events that led to its involvement in the war. It then delves into the life and career of General Dobbie, a decorated soldier who was appointed as the Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Malta in 1940.Through a series of detailed accounts and personal anecdotes, the book chronicles Dobbie's efforts to defend Malta against the relentless attacks of the Axis powers. It explores the challenges he faced, including shortages of food and supplies, constant bombardment, and the threat of invasion. It also highlights his leadership skills, his unwavering determination, and his ability to inspire and rally the Maltese people in the face of adversity.The book also provides a broader historical context, discussing the political and military developments of the war, and the impact of the conflict on the people of Malta. It includes photographs, maps, and other visual aids to help readers better understand the events and the people involved.Overall, Dobbie: Defender of Malta is a compelling and informative account of a little-known but significant chapter in World War II history. It is a tribute to the courage and resilience of General Dobbie and the people of Malta, and a testament to the power of leadership in times of crisis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
