Singapore burning : heroism and surrender in World War II

Smith, Colin, 1944-2006
Books, Manuscripts
Using material from many sources, Smith tells the story of the fall of Singapore. Alongside cowardice and incompetence are forgotten acts of enormous heroism; treachery yet heart-rending loyalty; compassion as well as brutality from the bravest and most capricious enemy the British ever had to face.
