Summary |
An untold tale of World War II in the Pacific. The cruiser USS Houston was lost in the Dutch East Indies during the Pacific War's dark early days. Her cryptic final radio message on the night of February 28, 1942 gave no inkling to the odds she had faced. Her survivors were captured and made slaves on Japan's notorious Burma-Thailand Death Railway. James Hornfischer sheds new light on this highly dramatic ordeal. |
