My father knew the author so it was touching to be able to read what they went through during this period of time!

Great insight of POW maladies and a resourceful doctor

A short story showing the dedication of an American doctor's fight for the welfare of POWs. A wonderful human triumph over an evil and sadistic enemy. The cruel and uncaring Japanese were unable to destoy the spirit of these men held captive as conveyed by Dr. Shabart's book. Furthermore the survival of POWs under Dr. Shabart's care speaks about the graditude of patients from enlisted to general.
