Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - Written by a journalist, this book tells the story of several Americans (who lived in the American Northwest) who fought in the Philippines in 1942 and became prisoners of war. Wodnik goes beyond telling the stories of fighting in the Philippines and enduring prison camp and hell ship horrors, but also the firebomb raids on Japan and the difficulties in adjusting to the post-war world. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
