Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Burma front was where global strategy met its most unforgiving tests. Cut off from easy sea access, threaded with mountains and dense forests, and battered by monsoon, it forced every combatant to confront a hard question: could their grand designs for Asia be sustained at the end of suc…h fragile lines of communication? The Forgotten Front: Burma and the Fight for Asia re-centres the Burma campaign as a pivotal struggle over logistics, health, and coalition cohesion rather than simply a backdrop to events in Europe or the Pacific.Moving from pre-war geography to the postwar settlement, Arjun Varquel traces how Japanese and Allied planners tried to impose their will on a landscape that resisted movement, punished neglect of disease, and magnified small tactical errors. He follows British, Indian, Chinese, American, and Burmese actors as they adapted to jungle warfare, experimented with air supply, and wrestled with the politics of sustaining a diverse coalition. Alongside operations at Imphal, Kohima, and along the Irrawaddy, the book examines refugees, coerced labour, and the wider civilian impact war had across towns, villages, and borderlands.Written for students of history and international relations, military professionals, and curious general readers alike, The Forgotten Front offers a clear framework for thinking about coalition operations and operational logistics in hostile environments. It shows how decisions about roads, airstrips, medical units, and intelligence networks often mattered as much as battlefield tactics. Readers will come away with a sharper sense of why Burma mattered to wartime Asia, how it shaped postcolonial trajectories, and what its demanding terrain still has to teach about the possibilities and limits of power projected over great distance. The Forgotten Front: Burma and the Fight for Asia re-centres the Burma campaign as a pivotal struggle over logistics, health, and coalition cohesion rather than simply a backdrop to events in Europe or the Pacific.
