Description
This is the story of Latter-day Saint soldiers who found themselves in the most wretched of circumstances--World War II prisoners of the Imperial Japanese Army, and of how their faith sustained them through the horrific conditions of their imprisonment, including the Bataan Death March, to return home to loving families. This is also a story of faithful Latter-day Saint POWs who did not survive. They and their families also have a story to tell and, although different, it also inspires.
