The Fall of Singapore was the largest military blow to the British war effort in the Second World War, underequipped, without adequate air-cover; the embattled defenders made a valiant stand against the invading Japanese army to no avail.

In this eyewitness account, illustrated with photographs, the anonymous author captures the attempts of the Empire troops to stem the tide of defeat as the inadequate defences were overrun. The anonymous author was a member of the Volunteer Defence Force and saw up close the carnage and heroics of the defenders firsthand before escaping in the nick of time via Penang.
