World War II may have started badly for the British in France and the Far East. but they were victorious in the North African desert, in Europe and in India and Burma where the 'Forgotten Army' first held the Japanese and then inflicted at Imphal and Kohima the greatest loss to the Japanese on land.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Jonathan Falconer</b> is the author of more than 35 books on aspects of aviation and military history, including the <i>Haynes Handley Page Halifax Manual, Short Stirling Manual, D-Day Operations Manual</i>, and co-author (with Brian Rivas) of the <i>de Havilland Mosquito Manual</i>.
