Surviving Bataan and Beyond: Colonel Irvin Alexander's Odyssey as a Japanese Prisoner of War - Stackpole Military History Series
Dominic J. Caraccilo
Few American prisoners of war during World War II suffered more than those captured when the Philippines fell to the Japanese in April 1942. In a horrifying captivity that lasted until the war's end, US troops endured the notorious Bataan Death March, overcrowded prison camps, and the stinking "hell ships" that transported them to Japan and Korea.
