Drawing upon the lessons obtained through Allied experiences in the Pacific theatres as well as their own encounters in Southeast Asia, the British used the available intelligence on the strategy, tactics and morale of Japan's armed forces to make the best use of what they had, and by the closing stages of the war in 1944 to 1945, they were able to devise a war plan which paved the way for the successful war effort. This book will be of great interest to all students of the Second World War, intelligence studies, British military history and strategic studies in general.
This new work explains how Britain's defence establishment learned to engage Japan's armed forces as the Pacific War progressed, and how intelligence affected Britain's conduct of its campaign against the Japanese in the Southeast Asia theatre.
