Description:
Singapore: NUS Press, 2018. Second edition. Paperback. New. In this second edition of what has already become a standard work on the period, Kratoska amplifies his earlier work by including the results of research based on subsequently available Japanese records of their occupation of Malaya. This work provides a detailed analysis of the significant social and economic turmoil of the period whose only benefit was probably to convince Malayans that they were fed up with colonialism in any form. 407 pages.
