India's Historic Battles: Imphal-Kohima,1944
The clash between the British Fourteenth Army and the Japanese Fifteenth Army at Imphal in Manipur and at Kohima in the then Naga Hills of Assam in 1944 was the turning point in the Burma Campaign of the Second World War. It was at these twin battles that the invasion of India was stopped, with the Allies subsequently driving the Japanese out of Burma in 1945. The Japanese lost some 30,000 men, with another 23,000 injured, in what is considered one of their greatest defeats on land.

In April 2013, Imphal-Kohima was named 'Britain's Greatest Battle' by the United Kingdom's National Army Museum. Indians fought on both sides-as part of the British Army and alongside the Japanese as soldiers of the Indian National Army (INA). This book is the first battlefield guide for Imphal and Kohima, and makes extensive use of maps and present-day photographs of the sites to tell the thrilling and tragic story of the historic battle of Imphal-Kohima, 1944. It is the third volume in the series, India's Historic Battles.
