Singapore, 1941-42 (New ed)

This eye-opening account tells the story of Britain's defeat in the Malayan campaign of the Second World War from the conqueror's point of view.

The author, Colonel Tsuji, was the strategist who planned the campaign which ran according to a strict ten week timetable.

His account, written with great authority and candour, is exceptionally fair to both sides, illustrating his point that `there is no difference in human nature between one's own side and the enemy side.'
