This second volume of three covering Japan's Asian Allies tells the story of the Burmese and Indian nationalists who fought on the side of the Japanese Empire from 1941 until 1945. The first book to relate the story of the Indian and Burmese forces raised by, or allied to, the Japanese, it describes in detail the organisation, training, actions, uniforms and equipment of these forces, including orders-of-battle, many rare and previously unpublished photographs and colour plates covering uniform and insignia, along with biographies of notable military commanders within the army.
