Record-Straightener on Japan

The Far East, 1942-46, by F. C. Jones, Hugh Borton and B. R. Pearn. 589 pp. New York: Oxford University Press. $14.00

This is a basic book in its field, but not an item for the lay reader. Rather it is a source book for students who want a meticulously documented account of all the areas of the Far East that were directly involved in World War II. If it contains little that has not been published previously elsewhere, it is nonetheless a useful collation of otherwise widely scattered information.
