AUTHOR: Lindsay, O
FORMAT: 272pp 41 Bw 4 maps 234x156 Hb
An authoritative account of how the British, Canadian, Indian and Chinese defenders surrendered Hong Kong to the Japanese after eighteen days of intense fighting, on Christmas Day 1941. Thoroughly researched, with exceptional access to war diaries and graphically written personal accounts, superbly told by an expert authority. The book also covers the activities of the British Army Aid Group (BAAG), the cover name of those spying in South-east Asia; their extraordinarily successful activities suddenly collapsed with catastrophic repercussions for many.
