Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Japanese armys March toward Delhi during the Second World War, Box of Lions explores the little-known but extraordinary clash on the Imphal Plain. When Japanese forces targeted a critical British supply depot codenamed Lion Box rich in food and military resources they expected little resistance. Instead, they encountered an unlikely and determined defence. Composed not of hardened infantry but of drivers, administrators, sappers and storemen, these so-called admin soldiers from Britain, India, Nepal and Africa were suddenly thrust into frontline combat. Over the course of three days of bitter fighting, they held off a professional invading force, buying time for the Allies to evacuate vital stores and shaking the confidence of the Japanese troops. Written by the son of a veteran who fought on the frontline, this gripping account draws on thirty years of research, first-hand interviews including with Japanese survivors and multiple journeys to the battlefield itself. Rich in oral history and raw with emotion, Box of Lions brings to life the courage, fear and resilience of ordinary men caught in extraordinary circumstances. Autorid: Christopher Johnson

"In Uprooting the Diaspora, Sarah Cramsey explores how the Jewish citizens rooted in interwar Poland and Czechoslovakia became the ideal citizenry for a post-World War II Jewish state in the Middle East. She asks, how did new interpretations of Jewish belonging emerge and gain support amongst Jewish and non-Jewish decision makers exiled from wartime east central Europe and the powerbrokers surrounding them? Usually, the creation of the State of Israel is cast as a story that begins with Herzl and is brought to fulfillment by the Holocaust. To reframe this trajectory, Cramsey draws on a vast array of historical sources to examine what she calls a "transnational conversation" carried out by a small but influential coterie of Allied statesmen, diplomats in international organizations, and Jewish leaders who decided that the overall disentangling of populations in postwar east central Europe demanded the simultaneous intellectual and logistical embrace of a Jewish homeland in Palestine as a territorial nationalist project. Uprooting the Diaspora slows down the chronology between 1936 and 1946 to show how individuals once invested in multi-ethnic visions of diasporic Jewishness within east central Europe came to define Jewishness primarily in ethnic terms. This revolution in thinking about Jewish belonging combined with a sweeping change in international norms related to population transfers and accelerated, deliberate postwar work on the ground in the region to further uproot Czechoslovak and Polish Jews from their prewar homes"-- In Uprooting the Diaspora, Sarah Cramsey explores how the Jewish citizens rooted in interwar Poland and Czechoslovakia became the ideal citizenry for a postWorld War II Jewish state in the Middle East.
