About In Enemy Hands

8 pages b/w photos 6 x 9 Based on personal interviews with surviving WWII prisoners of war Covers experiences of prisoners on both sides of the conflict A survivor of the Bataan Death March; a doctor held by the Japanese in Shanghai; an American journalist held in Stalag; a former Hitler Youth captured by the Americans; and a German girl taken by the Soviets in the aftermath of Germanys surrender. The experience of incarceration is brutal and demoralizing in its own right, yet it is so common that ex-POW organizations continue to thrive even in peacetime. These wide-ranging accounts, told in harrowing detail, reveal the everyday indignities, and at the same time, the heroism of those held in enemy hands during World War II, both in Europe and in the Pacific. Claire Swedberg, author of Work Commando 311/I, is a journalist with experience in reporting for both newspapers and television. She is currently a newspaper editor in New Jersey.
