Kerr, E. Bartlett SURRENDER & SURVIVAL : THE EXPERIENCE of AMERICAN Pows in the PACIFIC 1941-1945
New York William Morrow & Co. , Inc. 1985 First Edition Hardcover Fine in Very Good dust jacket
17 x 24 cm.; pg. 356 ; Foreword, chronology, maps, notes, sources, appendixes, index, black-and-white photos. "Few Americans today are aware of the experience of over twenty-five thousand U. S. Soldiers, airmen, and Marines who were prisoners of the Japanese during World War II. The valiant stand of the defenders of Wake Island, Bataan, and Corregidor, against impossible odds, held the national spotlight briefly in early 1942. With the fall of these U. S. Outposts in the Pacific, a curtain of obscurity dropped over their defeated garrisons...In the years that followed, these men, scattered in prison camps across East Asia, struggled for survival under conditions which at times were so horrible as to have few parallels in modern warfare.
