1. We Shall Suffer There: Hong Kong's Defenders Imprisoned 1942 45
by Tony Banham 
Price: USD 26.53
Dealer: Biblio, Elizabeth's Bookshops
Description: Hong Kong University Press, Date: 2009. Hardcover in Dustjacket. AS NEW COPY!. MILITARY GENERAL WWIIAS NEW COPY. We Shall Suffer There is the first work that documents the experiences of Hong Kong's prisoners of war and civilian internees from their capture by the Japanese in December 1941 to liberation, rescue, and repatriation. While the prisoner-of-war main camps in Hong Kong itself have been mentioned in many other works, there has so far been no definitive chronology of their operation. Where the camps in Japan (to which many of the Hong Kong POWs were sent in six main drafts) have been mentioned, coverage has been superficial and limited in scope, and many camps have been entirely overlooked. This book includes them all, and the movements between them, using only primary sources and only-as far as possible-the words of those involved.pp. xviii, 354 First Edition #231223""If you are interested in World War II history, this book are for you. They tell the story of the often overlooked Battle of Hong Kong, which was part of the British Commonwealth at that time. The Japanese began their attack on December 8, 1941 (some say the attack began on December 7, 1941 due to the international date line) The Japanese faced a combined force from the British Commonwealth, mainly consisting of two regiments from Canada, the Royal Rifles of Canada and the Winnipeg Grenadiers. These defenders, out-manned and ill-supplied, fought the Japanese valiantly but it was a forgone conclusion that Hong Kong would fall to the Japanese. The author, Tony Banham, has done a truly awesome job in presenting the story of the Hong Kong defenders (of interest specifically to me were the Royal Rifles of Canada) and their struggles in the Japanese POW camps.""  Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
