Called up in 1940, the author expected to be fighting Germans. Instead, he found himself caught up in the worst military defeat in modern British history - the fall of Singapore to the Japanese. He made the deadly jungle, with its malaria, cholera, swollen rivers, lethal snakes and exhausting heat, work for him. This book tells his story.
