253 pages. Reveals the astonishing story of a young Air Force pilot named Lance Sijan whose valor, dedication to duty, and indomitable spirit were tested under the most extreme condtions. In 1967 Sijan was ejected from his fighter-bomber into the jungle of Laos. Although disable, he dragged himself for six weeks until his capture. He escaped, but upon his recapture was tortured, and revealed no military information. He died in Hanoi. His gallant struggle galvanized other American POWs to resist torture and brainwashing and Sijan was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.

En 4º 210 x 135mm. 320 pp. láminas en blanco y negro. Rústica. Primera edición de este libro apreciado actualmente raro en el mercado. "El presente estudio es el primero intento con carácter orgánico de publicar la historia del periodismo peruano. Existen breves monografÃas limitados ensayos manojos de apuntes y algunos fragmentos dispersos pero no se habÃa escrito aún un libro que abarcara el laborioso y dilatado proceso de la prensa peruana desde sus más remotos orÃgenes. Tras una paciente investigación este volumen recoge en sus páginas el considerable aporte de la prensa del Perú a la cultura del continente ya que ningún otro paÃs de América posee tan sugestiva cantidad de hojas periodÃsticas como prueba irrefutable de su legÃtima antigüedad en el campo de las letras y del pensamiento escrito" nota editorial.
