Re: Article on the air war over Burma
Hello Frank,
After a short search on the net I found this: "Air Operations in the China Area, July 1937 - August 1945 Takejiro ShibaA Japanese account of the forgotten air war in China 200pp., card covers, 150mm x 215mm, 295g. Published by Burbank's Books, Blackwood, South Australia, 2000 USD $16.00, plus p&p International Airmail USD $7.50. order in advance now - AVAILABLE SOON This is an account of the Japanese air operations for the entire period of the "China Incident". Ranging from aerial triumphs over Nanking to the preparation of the massive Kamikaze operations to protect the homeland from invasion, a useful overview is presented for anyone studying modern Asian history. It was written for the USAFFE after the war had finished, and is based primarily on the experiences of Japanese officers involved in the air war. They were provided with some documents to work with, but much is drafted from memory." at: http://users.senet.com.au/~mhyde/burbanks_books_ww2.htm It feels very much like the old Japanese Monographs by Military History Section Headquarters, Army Forces Far East. (see: http://surfcity.kund.dalnet.se/historica.htm) i.e. this is not a new book. Unfortunately you can't buy them from Historica Publications any longer (rumors says that the publishers has past away but unfortunately I haven't been able to verify this). Best wishes/Håkan
