4.0 out of 5 stars
Britain & the Pacific War,
By Reginald H.Newell (Upper Hutt, N/a New Zealand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Britain, Southeast Asia and the Onset of the Pacific War (Hardcover)
I found this a really useful text dealing with British defence policy pre 7/8 December 1941.It is very readable & has a good degree of analysis.What suprised me was the extent to which the British were prepared to reach an accomodation with the Japanese Empire pre Pearl Harbour,& the role of the Dutch.America was a wild card with no certainty of getting involved in a war with Japan.America was getting out of the Phillipines & the Filpinos were concerned the Japanese would take over.Approaches were made by the Filipinos to the British with a view to being incorporated into the British Empire. This is a view of the period prior to WW2 in the Pacific which is new.I would recommend this book unhesitatingly. |
