The British fought the Second World War in Burma and India against the backdrop of nationalist unrest and revolt. The appalling Bengal famine of 1943, brought about by the loss of Burma's rice crop and the dislocation of government, would cause the deaths of many. This work provides a study of the series of battles that made up the Burma campaign.

The surrender of Singapore in 1942, with the capture of over 100,000 men, was one of the most humiliating defeats in British history. Based on original records, this book shows what went wrong and how an outnumbered and poorly equipped Japanese invasion force swept to victory against a mixed British, Australian and Indian army.
