Because in the years since 1945 that Empire has disappeared, the crucial fact that the British Empire fought as a whole during the war has been forgotten. All the parts of the Empire joined in the struggle from the beginning, undergoing huge changes and sometimes suffering greatly as a result. The war in the desert, the battle of the Atlantic and the Malaya campaign, and the contribution of the Empire as a whole in terms of supplies, communications and troops, all reflect the strategic importance of Britain's imperial status. Men and women not only from Australia, Canada, New Zealand and India but also from Africa, Burma, the Caribbean, the Middle East and Polynesia all played their part. The British Empire and the Second World War seeks to place the British Empire at the centre of our understanding of the Second World War."--Jacket. 000742606 61010 $$aGreat Britain.$$bArmy$$xHistory$$yWorld War, 1939-1945. 000742606 61010 $$aGreat Britain.$$bArmy$$xColonial forces$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000742606 651_0 $$aCommonwealth countries$$xArmed Forces$$xHistory$$yWorld War, 1939-1945. 000742606 651_0 $$aCommonwealth countries$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000742606 85200 $$bgen$$hD760.A1$$iJ33$$i2006 000742606 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:742606$$pGLOBAL_SET 000742606 980__ $$aBIB 000742606 980__ $$aBOOK
