Hardcover. Condition: Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Eastern Epic (1951) is a commissioned history by Scottish author Compton Mackenzie, documenting the crucial role of the Indian Army during World War II, focusing on the period from September 1939 to March 1943. Volume I, subtitled Defence, covers operations in North Africa, Syria, Iraq, Malaya, and Burma, highlighting the, at the time, often overlooked, massive contributions of British Indian forces. Some discolouration and foxing, marks on the cover, back cover faded and but otherwise good.
