Brailey, a specialist in modern Thai history, explains the frustrating effect of the Japanese incursion into Thailand at the start of World War II, which stifled one of Southeast Asia's earliest nationalist revolutions, as it became an unwilling handmaiden to the Japanese war effort. The narrative concludes in 1968 when military rule was still the order of the day, a common feature of Thai politics since then. Very Good Paperback. First Edition. 288 pages with a bibliography and an index.
