About this book

Sinister Twilight: The Fall of Singapore (Cassell Military Paperback) by Barber, Noel. paperback edition. ISBN: 0978030436437.

Filled with drama, this classic account follows every step that led to the disastrous fall of Singapore to the Japanese in February 1942. The Japanese army, though outnumbered by 20,000 men, defeated the British only one week after the actual assault began. "Fortress" Singapore turned out to be nothing of the sort, with its defenders ill prepared and complacent. It was all too ripe for handing Japan its second victory of the war after Hong Kong.
