Gripping true story about the liberation of US Soldiers from a Japanese POW camp in the Philippines during the waning days of the Pacific Campaign.  Sides is an excellent author.

A soldier, his pride, his honor, and his heroism, in a poetic form.

Historically accurate story of the raid that freed the remaining victims of the Bataan death march.  Excellent story and firsthand accounts from the heroes who conducted the raid and the heroes who suffered captivity.

Great recounting of the Bataan Death March and the lives of the POWs who survived it.  Being written in a narrative style with no footnotes made this book very easy to read and kept my interest throughout.  Highly recommended for WWII history buffs.

Humbling. A look at human limits and human's ability to abuse other humans to a point that goes beyond cruelity.

If you like WWII history, then you will definitely want to read this book. It is about the Bataan Death March and gives a great account of what American and Phillipine soldiers went through during this time period.  I absolutely recommend reading it.
