Field Marshal William Slim stands alongside Montgomery as the outstanding British field commander of World War II. Defeat Into Victory is his classic account of the Burma campaign: a story of retreat, attrition and final hard-fought victory over the Japanese.

Told by a commander always at the centre of events, this is a narrative which captures both the high drama and the harsh reality of war.
