商品簡介
商品簡介
Grehan, Mace, and Mitchell present unabridged dispatches from Air Chief Marshal Sir Robert Brooke-Popham, Major-General C.M. Maltby, Lieutenant General Arthur Percival, and Air Vice-Marshal Sir Paul Maltby. The surrender of Lieutenant-General Arthur Percival to the Japanese Commander, Lieutenant-General Tomoyuki Yamashita on Sunday, February 15, 1942, prompted Churchill to call the fall of Singapore “the worst disaster and largest capitulation in British history.” The dispatches of Percival, Brooke-Popham and the two Maltby brothers are reproduced exactly as they first appeared to the general public some seventy years ago--unedited and unmodified. Summing up the reasons for the tragic defeat, Major-General C.M. Maltby cited three: the Empire was not prepared for war on the scale necessary for the purpose, the war in Europe sapped resources to the point where only a fraction of the strength could be deployed, and the added problem that the Japanese were more formidable than expected. Four sections are: Air Chief Marshal Sir Robert Brooke-Popham’s dispatch on operations from 17 October 1940 to 27 December 1941; Major-General C.M. Maltby’s dispatch on operations in Hong Kong, 8 December 1941 to 25 December 1941; Lieutenant General Arthur Percival’s dispatch on operations, 8 December 1941 to 15 February 1942; Air Vice-Marshal Sir Paul Maltby’s dispatch on air operations during the campaigns in Malaya and Netherland East Indies, 8 December 1941 to 12 March 1942.
