The British Army, the Gurkhas and Cold War Strategy in the Far East, 1947–1954 - Studies in Military and Strategic History
Raffi Gregorian
This book argues that postwar Britain's 'imperial over-extension' has been exaggerated. There British and Gurkha forces were deployed only in contingencies that threatened vital British interests, while the U.S. and Commonwealth allies were persuaded to accept key wartime missions, thus preserving Britain's ability to fight in Western Europe.
