Cost of the book

Good but not worth a credit for a book less than a hour in length

I could have heard this on u tube

fantastic book Marc Felton well presented, as usual by MFP, I also follow him on you tube, for 2 dollars it was great toilet listen

well worth a listen

A well narrated and very interesting short story. It kept my attention right through to the end

Great story!

Fantastic story. An incredible glimpse into an otherworldly experience. Days after finishing my mind is still coming to grips with what this man went through. Wonderful narration. Really hope for more from this author.

Rangoon calling

A short story of pesky little Praganni perpetually pestered profoundly by the insanity of people in war.

Quite the listen

A gripping story. Shows the desperation of those who did everything they could to not be taken prisoner, and for good reason.

love this guy

I only have one wish for Mark Felton to write more books and do more audio books really good at keeping me in and the flow is amazing.

Splendid story of human perseverance and determination.

I think this is a great example of how war can bring out the best and worst in people. Only in war do we see these extreme examples of courage and determination, both admiral traits juxtaposes against the savagery and brutality of the treatment of the Japanese towards their POWs.

Continued excellence.

Dr. Felton continues, in his normal way,
to tell a story in a simple, easy format that still engages. This follows his growing YouTube channel that has become a standard for, mostly, little know military history stories. He does so in a manner that History Channel and others have forgotten.
This story follows one mans struggle to continue the fight and the spirit it takes to endure ,and escape from , one of the most horrible episodes in recent human history that deals with the Japanese attitude towards those they captured.
Well done.

Good.

Good, but can't really get the feel of it without maps. Magnificent story though.
