Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Focusing on the period between 1932 and 1968, this comprehensive study bridges the gap between recent political studies and available historiography, which generally conclude with the 1932 revolution. Dr. Brailey discusses the 1942 Japanese capture of Singapore that dragged a reluctant Thailand into World War II-a war Thai leaders believed was irrelevant to their national interests. He argues that this country, which had launched one of the East's earliest nationalist revolutions, had its political development reversed for a quarter century by the arrival of Japanese troops. Ironically, the Japanese presence in the region enabled most of Thailand's neighbors to promote their own development through decolonization.

It is a remarkable story, which includes significant analysis of Japan's relationship with Thailand and the latter's role in Asia, as well as Tsuji's experiences in Kuomintang China. In his Introduction, Nigel Brailey states: 'Tsuji Masanobu is at one and the same time one of the most interesting and preposterous figures of the entire Japanese war - which, if you rely on his own megalomaniac accounts, he waged 'almost single-handed'.' This is an important book which has been carefully edited with supporting annotations, and has its place in the military history of the period. Controversially, Colonel Tsuji who, according to Louis Allen, was responsible for 'unspeakable atrocities' in Singapore and elsewhere during the Pacific War, was never prosecuted for war crimes.…
