Foreword by Field Marshal Lord Carver, GCB, CBE, DSO, MC.
Major-General Ian Lyall Grant, with the co-operation of Dr Kazuo Tamayama, has, in this book, written what must henceforth be regarded as the most authoritative account of an unfortunate campaign... There have been other accounts, but none which have benefited so much both from the detailed representation of the Japanese action and from the author's personal experience... This book makes an important contribution to the history of the Second World War.
General Sir George Cooper, GCB, MC, in the Journal of the Royal United Services Institute for Defence Studies, June 1999.
This beautifully produced volume covers the Japanese invasion and the long withdrawal through Central Burma and back to India... [The author] has had unprecedented access to Japanese sources, the bulk of them previously unknown in this country... Despite his personal involvement, this is a commendably objective account of a most difficult campaign... [It] is a first class book, excellently written and of absorbing interest to all those who want to know what really went on in those early days of the war against Japan.
