Forgotten War: The British Empire and Commonwealths Epic Struggle Against Imperial Japan, 1941-1945 Walter Brian E.
A new assessment of the British and Commonwealth contribution to the defeat of Japan in the Pacific.The monumental struggle fought against Imperial Japan in the Asia/Pacific theater during World War II is primarily viewed as an American affair. It was a difficult and often desperate conflict fought against a skilled and ruthless enemy that initially saw the British suffer the worst series of defeats ever to befall their armed forces. While the United States did play a dominant role, the British and Commonwealth forces also made major contributions--on land, at sea and in the air, eventually involving over a million men and vast armadas of ships and aircraft.
Fighting over an immense area that stretched from India in the west to the Solomon Islands in the east and Australia in the Still, the British persevered and slowly turned the tables on their Japanese antagonists.
