Book Description
"Hong Kong Volunteers in Battle", when originally published in 1953, was the first general account of the battle for Hong Kong in December 1941. It has served as a source for other books in the conflict and is particularly significant as it was written by a Company Commander who took part in the battle. This is the first edition to acknowledge the author, Evan Stewart, who commanded the Hong Kong Defence Volunteer Corps No.3 (Machine Gun) Company in the fighting and, although injured, continued to fight with distinction for which he was awarded the Distinguished Service Order.
