Synopsis
Gavan Daws combined ten years of documentary research and hundreds of interviews with surrviving POWs to write this explosive, first-and-only account of the experiences of the Allied POWs of World War II. The Japanese Army took over 140,000 Allied prisoners, and one in four died the hands of their captors. Here Daws reveals the survivors' haunting experiences, from the atrocities perpetrated during the Bataan Death March and the building of the Burma-Siam railroad to descriptions of disease, torture, and execution.

  • A Book Well Worth Reading if You Want to Understand Man's Cruelty to Man

    I wanted to research the events of the war around the prisoners in the Japanese prison camps as a relative was one of those prisoners. The book is very readable and interesting, nothing held back or covered up. It makes one feel deeply about man's inhumanity to man and the recklessness of war. This is a rather thick book but I was entranced. First I read a copy from the library, then got this one in case I wanted to quote it later.
