"The fall of Singapore to the Japanese on 15 February 1942 was the greatest disaster in British Military history and hastened the Japanese thrust south towards Australia. Half a century later the fall of the 'impregnable fortress' is still hotly debated in military and political circles.How did it happen and why did it happen? Gilbert Mann saw most of the Malayan Campaign, first as a private with 8 Division AIF and later as a war correspondent. In this book he gives a graphic account, first, of the epic Battle of Muar in which a small force of fewer than 2000 Australian servicemen held bay the crack 1st Imoperial Guards Division for five important days. It was a battle from which the British commanders at Singapore could have learnt much, but didn't." This book has 229 pages and is illustrated.
