"Britain's Involvement in Vietnam" examines the British army's role in restoring French colonial rule to the south of the country, casting new light on post-war relations. On 12 September 1945, a battalion of British Gurkhas arrived in Saigon, the first element of a force under General Douglas Gracey, tasked by the Potsdam agreement to disarm the defeated Japanese military. North of the 16th parallel, the task of occupation fell to the Kuomintang forces of Chiang Kai-shek. South of it, Britain was to be the occupying power. Drawing on a wealth of previously unseen papers and archives, this new study explores the British imperialistic thinking that informed the subsequent slide back to colonialism. This new book skilfully presents this episode in great detail, and places it against the background of Britain's development after the Second World War and its relationships with America and Asia. This book will be of great interest to all students of post-war relations and diplomacy, the aftermath of World War II, the Vietnam War and of international relations and strategic studies in general.
