the ghost that died at sunda straits

i purchased this book because my uncle was on the uss houston and survived 3 1/2 years in a japanese prison camp. part of my uncles experience was on 3 pages of the book which was fantastic and hard to believe all they went through. this book was written by a guy who went through the same things the other 284 survivors did. would recommend to any that are interested in WW11 history.
