The graphic recollections of a Japanese prisoner of war during World War II. "Richard Sewell writes very well, the major publishing houses to which he sent the manuscript said so, but they were very sorry to have to say 'no' and pass it by - 'because it might possibly offend the Japanese, who are now, after all, our (business) friends and allies.

That is why this is an uplifting story, one not just of survival, but of the triumph of goodness." - from Foreward by Bishop Robert C. Crawley SSC. Clean and bright with minimal wear. Excellent copy.
