Wrath in Burma is the story of General Joseph "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell in the challenging China-Burma-India theater during World War 2. Stilwell was unrelenting and worked tirelessly to build the Chinese Army, despite severe limitations of men, supplies, support, and cooperation from his superiors. Stilwell's mission was to exert all possible pressure to make the Chinese and British fight the Japanese, and Wrath in Burma is the account of that mission, with all its treachery, courage, and eventual heartbreak.
