| BURMA 1942: THE JAPANESE INVASION This book is subtitled ‘Both Sides Tell the Story of a Savage Jungle War’ and it makes extensive use of information from both sides, thus providing a comprehensive account of the First Burma Campaign. The reasons for the inadequate defence provided by the British are explained and the daring efficiency of the Japanese invaders described. The actions of both sides are clearly shown through the many detailed, coloured maps and the nature of that war is vividly portrayed - the close quarter fighting, the long distances covered, the climatic conditions, the Chinese allies and the RAF’s heroic contribution. This is an important addition to the history of WWII. Field Marshal Lord Carver has written an introduction. Format: Product Code No: 2937 |
