Prisoner of War: Six Years in Hanoi
114 pages. Profusely illustrated with black and white sketches. "Author was a young Navy pilot who was captured by the North Vietnamese in June of 1967. As a former POW, McGrath believes that the story of life in the prison camps must be told, both for the sake ofhistory and to disprove forever the claims of the Communist government that the captured men were treated humanely, and in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Convention... The starkness of the drawings underscores a remarkable chronicle of lives constantly in peril, almost unimaginable in civilised times." - from dust jacket. "This book cannot be adequately described - it has to be seen and read." - Armed Forces Journal International. Sadly, the author's own country has reverted to similar barbarism at its Guantanomo Bay prisoner camp. Usual library markings. Somewhat above-average wear. A worthy reference copy of this powerful and sobering work. Book
