| Publisher Description: This book is about a POW, Ethan Gottschalk(Tex), and his experiences while imprisoned by the Japanese during World War II. It relates many of his experiences in the nine POW camps that he was imprisoned in, at Manila, Formosa and Japan. To reach these destinations he was transferred by what is usually known as Hell Ships. These in some cases were as bad as some of the POW camps. Many on these prisoners died during their travels and some were buried at sea. |
