商品簡介
Official records and testimony of participants based on their recollections, memoirs, and correspondence document the experience of the rice farmers and rainforest dwellers during the occupation. Ooi (history, U. Sains Malaysia, Penang) concludes that the natives were more bewildered than frightened, and the Japanese more concerned about oil and British troops than the natives. Severe brutality and resistance however are not lacking from the record. The two volumes are paged continuously and indexed as one. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
