Description:
London: Grub Street Publishing, 1992. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. pp: 392. FIRST EDITION. 'The first comprehensive account of air operations over South-East Asia December 1941 - April 1942'. The first volume of a detailed history of the Allied forces in South-East Asia during the Second World War. This volume focuses on the string of defeats and disasters that plagued all Allied forces in the Asian theatre of operations. The air battles include those over The Philippines, Malaya, Burma, and the defense of Singapore. This is a very good copy with a couple of faint stains on the top board. The dust jacket has light edge wear. The only obvious drawback of this book is the need for a magnifying glass to read the index.
