The Retreat from Burma 194142

The Retreat From Burma narrates the circumstances under which Burma was lost to the Japanese in 1942. In the main, however, it is an account of the fighting of the troops who struggled against all odds and saved themselves from the prospect of extermination which confronted them. The retreating Indians finally settled on the eastern border in KohimaImphal region. The early reverses, however, encouraged the Indian Army to make vigorous preparations to fight the Japanese successfully.
