Not sure if any of you have seen this site before, but I found it to be a very good read and description of all the key points that led to the Japanese capture and occupation of Hong Kong: http://www.hkvca.ca/historical/banham.htm

The author of that web page is Tony Banham. If you're interested in this topic you should visit his full website. It has new information added each month, plus descriptions of the books he has written.

I have recently read both "Not the Slightest Chance" and "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" by Mr Banham, and can say that they are top class pieces of work, you can tell just by the quality and detail of the information inside that they have been thoroughly researched. I look forward to the next volume in the series.
