Description
An unforgettable account of one of the greatest campaigns in British military history - the war against the Japanese in Burma. The campaign in Burma was remarkable in many ways. It was the longest and biggest ground war fought by the British and Americans against the Japanese. It was won in some of the bitterest fighting experienced by the Allies in the Second World War, and included one of the longest retreats (1000 miles) and one of the greatest Allied Victories, Kohima-Imphal. It saw the emergence of one of the greatest British commanders of all time, General Slim. And the Allied forces serving in Burma were among the most multi-racial in the history of warfare. Using the exceptional material in the Imperial War Museum's archives, Major General Julian Thompson's book provides the general and specialist reader with an unforgettable picture of what it was really like to fight in this extraordinary conflict, on land and air.
