Description: "For two years I watched the new Far East history unfold from within the enemy's camp. For a newspaperman it was an unusual opportunity to cover a war from a new angle, although I would have skipped the experience gladly had Marjorie and I been able to get out to Corregidor and away from Manila after our communications failed in the Philippines on the last day of 1941. For some, plans for escape succeeded; ours failed. We had to stay. In the meantime there was a story to get, even though we were imprisoned. So we set out as carefully as possible, constantly under the threat of Japanese atrocities and army bayonets, to get that story. You'll read it as I saw it happen, as accurately as I can put it down, and with no punches pulled. Here it is." --R.A.G. (from the Foreword, page ix)
