Inhaltsangabe

Captive is based on a memoir written by Giles and discovered after his death by his son, Donald T. Giles, Jr. The historical framework of his father's experiences, both in Guam and later in the Japanese camps of Zentsuji and Roku Roshi, was reconstructed after the son thoroughly researched military records, Japanese reports, and other primary source materials. As presented, the book is one of the most cogent accounts ever published of the fall of Guam and the ensuing four years of brutality. It commemorates all personnel - including civilians - who died or were captured on Guam and contains exhaustive annotation of incidents prior to, during, and after their surrender to the Japanese.
