A book that was frankly hard to read, the author weaves the stories of the March survivors seamlessly. Even harder reading at the end was the treatment of these men by their own government in telling them they had no psychological damage and refused them treatment.

Difficult to read much at one time because of the relentless and never-ending horrific treatment of the prisoners. Those who survived to tell the tales were amazing men.
A stunning book with great first-hand accounts of this brutal death march. A must read for anyone interested in history.
