Road of Bones: The Siege of Kohima 1944 - The Epic Story of the Last Great Stand of Empire Book

The epic story of one of the most savage battles of the Second World War. Kohima. In this remote Indian village near the border with Burma a tiny force of British and Indian troops faced the might of the Imperial Japanese Army. Outnumbered ten to one the defenders fought the Japanese hand to hand in a battle that was amongst the most savage in modern warfare. A garrison of no more than 1 500 fighting men desperately short of water and with the wounded compelled to lie in the open faced a force of 15 000 Japanese. They held the pass and prevented a Japanese victory that would have proved disastrous for the British.Read More
