Comments: The end of the Second World War could not come quickly enough for Charlie Johnstone and the thousands taken prisoner of war by the Japanese. Within seven fateful weeks, the fall of Rabaul in January to the surrender in Java in March 1942, more than 22,000 Australians became prisoners of the Japanese.
This was Australia’s greatest wartime disaster!
This book tells the story, in Charlie Johnstone’s own words of how one man managed to survive the brutal Sandakan prisoner of war camp.
