EVANS Lieutenant-General Sir GeoffreyMareMagnum

Slim as Military Commander. BRIGHT, CLEAN COPY IN UNCLIPPED DUSTWRAPPER

8vo., First Edition, with fine portrait frontispiece, 48 plates on 22, 4 folding maps in red and black, 15 full-page maps, and front and rear endpaper maps; armorial cloth gilt, gilt back, blue top, a very good, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly rubbed at extremities. 'I consider Slim was the finest general World War II produced' (Earl Mountbatten). General Evans fought under Slim as a divisional commander in Burma and has also provided (with Anthony Brett-James) the definitive account of Imphal, Slim's greatest victory against the Japanese. Increasingly elusive in this condition. Enser, p.406; Graham & Cole, L5.

MASTERS JohnMareMagnum

The Road past Mandalay. A Personal Narrative. UNCORRECTED PROOF COPY

8vo., Uncorrected Proof Copy, with title-vignette; original printed wrappers, a very good, clean copy. Effectively a sequel to his splendid 'Bugles and a Tiger' (1956). Masters served as a middle-ranking officer in Burma throughout the war. This striking personal record of service with Gurkhas and Chindits (including his participation in Operation BLACKPOOL) therefore stands between the more usually recorded views of generals and private soldiers. Includes illuminating portraits of Slim, Wingate and Stilwell among others. PROOF COPIES ARE VERY SCARCE. Enser, p.90; not recorded by Graham & Cole, which lists only the US (Harper) edition as M55.
