Japan's Last Bid for Victory: The Invasion of India, 1944

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the pivotal battles of World War II, particularly the ones fought in Burma.

With deep knowledge and understanding of the war in Burma, Robert Lyman weaves together an enthralling narrative using original documents, published works, and personal accounts to create a balanced history of the battles that helped end the Japanese empire.

The book includes material from British sources as well as the Naga tribes of north-east India, and even interviews with Japanese veterans of the fighting.

Fergal Keane, a renowned journalist and author, has praised Lyman's work, calling it "a wonderful job" that conveys the courage, genius, and folly of an epic struggle in a way that is both integrity and soundness of judgments." This book is a triumph and a must-read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of one of the most important conflicts in history.
