description: "You must believe my eyes." Thus implores Han Wei-tien as he recounts his long years of "reform through labor" in the prison camps of Communist China. Arrested as a spy for Chiang Kai-shek at the beginning of the Korean War, the thirty-four-year-old Han was dropped into a dry well sixty feet deep and five feet wide, which would serve as his prison cell for the next two years - until the deprivation had blinded him, though not broken his will. Nor would that will be broken over the next two decades, though Han would spend most of those years in a succession of jails and "labor correction" camps.
