“All Aboard for Singapore completes a trilogy of which Sky High to Shanghai and To the Isles of Spice are the other two.  Mr Clune says: “In this book I have tried to convey a general picture of that region upon which the eyes of Australia are not intently focused, as the A.I.F. of a new generation stands to arms at strategic points on the Imperial Lifeline, bisecting it, from Darwin through Surabaya and Singapore to the borders of Thailand – the country till lately known as Siam”
