About This Item
Basingstoke, UK: Palgrave Macmillan, 1987. Hardcover. Very Good/near fine. Although the post World War II market was flooded with many individual accounts of life in captivity for British servicemen in Malaya, comparatively little has been published about the fate of British civilians at the time. Here, Kennedy, better known for his standard history text book on Malaya, uncovers, through both published and unpublished accounts, the experiences of expatriate non combatants caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. Very Good Hardback in a Near Fine Dust Jacket 167 pages. For further details, please see the scanned contents page. Weight 0.6kg. Post free within Malaysia The dust jacket looks pristine, but part of the text block has some tanning. The binding is tight, the text clear and there is no tanning of the pages.
