Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In 1942, as war spread in the Far East and the British, Japanese and Chinese fought ferocious battles on Burmese soil, an 11-year-old Anglo-Burmese boy and his family found themselves trapped in the path of the advancing armies. Like hundreds of thousands of other refugees abandoned by the civil administration, their only hope of survival was to try to escape on foot to India through the dense jungles of Northern Burma. Stephen Brookes was that young boy, and in this account he describes the flight from his affluent home and the fearful 3000-mile journey that partially destroyed his family. It took them via China and the Burma Road, ending in a 300-mile barefoot trek across mountain ridges, where they were ambushed by Chinese soldiers, through the terrible jungle swamps of the Hukawng Valley at the height of the monsoon and into the horror of an internment camp where they were left to rot for months. Those eight months of fear, sickness and starvation turned him from a boy into a man as he witnessed the death of his father and took on responsibility for his mother and sick brother and sister until they finally reached safety at Jhansi in India. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Zustand: As New. : En 1942, en plena expansión de la guerra en el Lejano Oriente, un niño anglo-birmano de 11 años y su familia se ven atrapados en Birmania, en el camino de los ejércitos en avance. Como cientos de miles de refugiados abandonados por la administración civil, su única esperanza de supervivencia es intentar escapar a pie a la India a través de las densas junglas del norte de Birmania. Stephen Brookes, el autor, describe la huida de su hogar y el terrible viaje de 3000 millas que destruyó parcialmente a su familia. El viaje les llevó a través de China y la carretera de Birmania, terminando en una caminata descalza de 300 millas a través de crestas montañosas, donde fueron emboscados por soldados chinos, a través de las terribles ciénagas de la jungla del valle de Hukawng en el apogeo del monzón y hacia el horror de un campo de internamiento donde fueron abandonados a su suerte durante meses. Es una autobiografía histórica, política y militar.
