| 520 | 3 | _aDescribes British policy in Southeast Asia between 1939 and 1941. Unable to allocate major military resources because of war in Europe, Britain relied on diplomatic resources to retain its position as the major colonial power in Asia. To do this it had to rely on the USA but had little control over American policy. This book looks at Britain's relations with the Dutch East Indies, Philippines, French Indo China and Thailand. | |
