A complete chapter is de voted to the activities of the Suffolk and Cambridgeshire Territorial battalions...Each chapter describes a tour of duty of one battalion in a particular posting and is divided into two parts: the first paints a general picture of the role of t h e b a ttalion showing why it was there and what it was like to be there with some mention of events of note. The second part of the chapter contains a detailed chonological account of the experiences of the battalion...In Malaya the Regiment w on f or it se lf between 1949 and 1953 a reputation unequalled throughout the whole 12-year Emergency there by any other British battalion. While the chapter devoted to Malaya provides the core of the book the other chapters reveal a continous th rea d o f d e vot ion to duty and the author is not exaggerating when he speaks in his preafce of 'a quiet, grim determination in the face of extremely hostile conditions' to do a worthwhile job as being characteristic of the Suffolk Regiment un til the ver y en d.

Nor does it neglect 'the other side of the hill', for it shows why the Chinese decided to interven e a n d a s sesses the methods that gave their relatively ill-equipped infantry such a devastating impact...coverage is based upon an analysis of the fighting, examining the way that the conflict developed from a fluid war of movement to a static tr e nc h wa r fa re in which attrition and small-scale patrolling became the dominant features..."
