<p><strong>The true story of a soldier who survived Japanese capture, a sinking hell ship, and the bombing of Nagasaki, all while his family fought their own battle in the Burmese jungle.</strong></p> <p>While leading an attack on Hong Kong’s Golden Hill, Jack Devereux of the Royal Scots is shot through the head. Then a Japanese officer attempts to behead him in order to blood his samurai sword. Waking briefly, Devereux kills his would-be executioner, impressing his captors. Fascinated by their prisoner’s grisly wounds, they allow him to live, but Devereux’s trials are only beginning.</p> <p>In a precarious physical state, the wounded soldier experiences the horrific sinking of the Japanese freighter <em>Lisbon**Maru</em>, in which hundreds of POWs drown; survives the shark-infested South China Sea; and burrows in the mines of Nagasaki as the atom bomb falls. Meanwhile, his family hides in Burma, hoping against hope that they will one day be reunited with Devereux.</p> <p>Written by his son, Brian Devereuxーwhose mother carried him from Mandalay to the deserted medieval city known today as Baganーthis is an amazing account of the terrifying wartime journey of a soldier and his family.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
