This article presents brief information on the book "U.S. Army in World War II. CB.I. Theatre. Stilwell's Command Problems," by Charles F. Romanus and Riley Sunderland. World War II, resulted in the destruction of Japan's power position, tipping the political balance in East Asia in favor of the Soviet Union. The U. S. Government had hoped that China would function as a partner of the West, in the post-war period, to help maintain peace and stability in the Pacific region. In the present volume, Romanus and Sunderland depict with meticulous scholarship the logistical and military operations and political developments bearing on the China-Burma-India Theatre for the year beginning October, 1943.
