Ghost Soldiers: The Epic Account of World War II's Greatest Rescue Mission
reviewed on + 63 more book reviews


An absolutely vivid detail of the ordeals, tragedies, and triumphs relating to the men who were subjected to the cruelties of war in a Japanese prison. A riviting book that is hard to put down. The Rangers who rescued the remaining soldiers were truly a rare breed of men to place themselves in constant danger to take on this mission. The author has done extensive research and managed to keep the human element visible at all times and at a high priorty. You feel as though you were there in the midst of it all. An excellent read.
