A compelling bio that grabs your attention and holds it! Jan 20, 2005
This is an excellent book with a compelling story - unique, original and full of irony. It's about an American citizen who was forced to fight for an enemy during World War II--and then became a prisoner of war. The theme is like that of Angela's Ashes, in that it recounts hardships that most of us can't imagine enduring. The writing is straightforward and honest, and paints a fascinating picture about another time. It's a page-turner until its happy end.
An unusual, gripping story Jan 20, 2005
Everyone's personal story is interesting, but this story is one of a kind. A true account, it's full of irony from beginning to end. The protagonist, an American citizen, is forced to fight against his own country in a world war. He's captured by the Allies and spends seven years in p.o.w. camps. Finally he returns to America on "the best day of his life." A great read!
